I've had the bootleg for years - love the new deluxe package. Wonderful!

Very over rated. The title cut (Pacific Ocean Blues) has lyrics that are cringeworthy and simplistic. Some decent tracks - especially Farewell My Friend but not worth the universal acclaim it is getting on re-release.

I had been anticipating this reissue for a long time and now it's finally here. Pacific Ocean Blue is a classic album and the Bambu songs are great. Tracks like 'River Song' and 'Moonshine' are up there with Brian Wilson's best compositions, as far as I'm concerned. The sound quality of the CDs is fantastic, and after listening to many of these songs on low quality mp3s and bootlegs for years, I have a whole new appreciation for this music.

My second favorite album of the 1970s. Have only been able to listen lousy MP3's of it since the needle went and i disconnected the turntable. Now if only they will release my favoite 70's album: Beached by thr original Rikki Martin. It has so much Carl Wilson on it that I thught of it as a Beach Boys album, same with Pacific Ocean Blue!
