Made in U.S.A. (The Beach Boys album)

Common card · No. 452061

Made in U.S.A. is a 1986 double vinyl album (or one-CD) compilation, containing some of the Beach Boys' biggest hits. Released by the group’s original record label, Capitol Records, it marked a brief return to the label, with which the Beach Boys released one further album, 1989's Still Cruisin'. Featuring a number of their 1960s classics, in addition to a sampling of its later hits, Made in U.S.A. also contains two new recordings, both produced by Terry Melcher. "Rock 'n' Roll to the Rescue" is a Mike Love/Melcher collaboration, and "California Dreamin'" is a cover of the Mamas & the Papas' late 1965 debut single. Both were released as singles and made the U.S. pop singles chart. A slow seller, Made in U.S.A. reached No. 96 in the U.S. and ultimately went double platinum there.
