The Platinum Collection (Sounds of Summer Edition) is a three-disc greatest hits album by American rock band The Beach Boys , released in December 2005 by EMI . It includes some of The Beach Boys' most popular songs from their early days like "California Girls " and "Surfin' U.S.A. ", but also songs from their later period, when their success started to fade, like "Lady Lynda " or "Sumahama". Except for some songs from the first two albums, most previously mono tracks have been digitally remastered in stereo.[ 5]
