The 25th Anniversary Edition of ‘Live At The Roxy Theatre’ is out now through Oglio Records, documenting a definitive chapter in the career of the Beach Boys co-founder. This 2025 arrival stands as the first official release since the passing of the musical visionary on June 11, 2025. The recordings originate from two sold-out nights in April 2000 at the legendary Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood. This historic performance is now available as a 3LP box set for the first time, alongside a 2CD set and digital formats.
A powerhouse 10-piece band including members of the Wondermints provides the instrumental backbone for this celebrated residency. The tracklist moves from foundational hits like “California Girls” and “Surfer Girl” into the complex vocal layers of “Good Vibrations” and “I Get Around.” Newer originals such as “The First Time” and “This Isn’t Love” also appear in the set to highlight the strength of the solo years. This anniversary package features newly unearthed performances and on-tour recordings spanning from 2000 to 2009.
Producers Mark Linett and Carl Caprioglio supervised the mixing and expansion of this archive to include these previously unreleased tracks. New liner notes by David Leaf identify these specific West Hollywood shows as the spark for the subsequent ‘Pet Sounds Live’ and ‘SMiLE’ era. The recording captures the precise acoustics of the room and the tight execution of the ensemble. This album radiates a pure and vibrant musical spirit that confirms the brilliance of the arrangements.
The 3LP box set offers a tangible way to experience the high-fidelity sound of a legendary second act. These discs contain a factual account of a master songwriter reclaiming the stage with a world-class group of musicians. Every track showcases the meticulous attention to detail that defined these late-career performances. This release provides a comprehensive look at a decade of touring through a mix of club dates and expanded archival tapes.
