''Stack-O-Tracks'' is an album release by The Beach Boys containing backing tracks to fifteen of their songs spanning their career to that point. This type of release was unique for the band, and generally is unique throughout the music industry where backing tracks, in the rare event of their commercial release, are generally bonus tracks or b-sides to singles. The Beach Boys third and final album release of 1968, coming after ''Friends'' and released the same day as the quickly gathered material for ''Best of The Beach Boys Vol. 3'', ''Stack-O-Tracks'' was seen by many at the time as a desperate last-ditch effort by Capitol Records to try ''anything'' to sell Beach Boys material. The strategy backfired, however; issued at one of their lowest commercial ebbs in the U.S., ''Stack-O-Tracks'' became the first Beach Boys album to fail to reach the U.S. or UK charts. Until 1992's much-maligned ''Summer in Paradise'', it would remain their only official release to have this distinction. The album included a booklet with the bass lines, lead lines, chords and lyrics (to sing along with). ''Stack-O-Tracks'' quickly disappeared and was out of print for two decades. In 1990, Capitol Records re-issued it on CD, and again in 2001 - both releases without the booklet that accompanied the vinyl edition. ==Track listing== All songs by Brian Wilson/Mike Love, except where noted. #"Darlin' " – 2:12 #"Salt Lake City" – 1:58 #"Sloop John B" (Trad. arr.

While ''Stack-O-Tracks'' was originally available only in mono or Duophonic sound, the CD includes true stereo mixes of several tracks. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stack-O-Tracks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
