Comp.: The Beach Boys- The Best From 1963-1979

This first compilation track list covers the Beach Boys' career from 1962 through 1979 and fits comfortably on two discs.
The set is made up of instantly recognizable hits from their "hit-parade" years (1963-1966), hidden gems from their most creative era (1966-1973) and the best of the worst (1976-1979). I chose mostly my personal favorites, but I left off some of the best tracks from their entire career.
Anyway, here are the tracks:
