Stack-O-Tracks
\ USA - RAINBOW CAPITOL - DKAO 2893 - STEREO

The Stack-O-Tracks album was release by The Beach Boys containing the actual backing tracks to fifteen of their songs spanning their career to that point. Considered little more than a penny pincher when it came out, Stack-O-Tracks turned out to be a very educational album for those wanted to know what went into the making of a Beach Boys music track. This type of release was unique for any band of the period, and generally was and still is relatively 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. 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 records. The strategy backfired, when the record buying public, in 1968, just didn't get it. Nonetheless, featuring actual Beach Boys backing tracks from their past studio albums, and includes a large 15 page booklet with the bass lines, lead lines, chords and lyrics (to sing along with), Stack-O-Tracks was clearly a gift to those who wanted to hear what was going on beneath the lush harmonies.... Stack-O-Tracks quickly disappeared and was out of print
