The Beach Boys have announced a new two-disc set of rarities and unreleased material, Sunshine Tomorrow. The set covers the music they made after finishing Pet Sounds and abandoning work on the Smile album, during the sessions for fan-favorite studio albums Smiley Smile and Wild Honey, both of which were released in 1967. Included in the 65-track compilation is the shelved in-studio live performance album Lei’d In Hawaii and a plethora of other live recordings, largely from 1967 and recorded in Honolulu. There are also outtakes and demos from the sessions for both studio albums.

See the full track list below, courtesy of Rolling Stone, and preorder the double-album here.
