It covers three decades of music with selections from nine of Wilson's solo albums.  The album includes two previously unreleased tracks: "Run James Run", an outtake from "No Pier Pressure" (2015), and "Some Sweet Day", a song he wrote and recorded with Andy Paley in the early 1990s for an unfinished recording project.

Carnival of Sound: Carnival of sound is the last studio album by the American rock band Jan and Dean.  Though recorded throughout 1967–1968, it was released in 2010 on Rhino Handmade Records.  Even though it is credited as a Jan and Dean record, it's actually more of a Jan Berry solo effort.  The album is mainly made up up of original material though some of the tracks are covers of songs by artists such as The Five Satins and The Coasters.  It's notable for being a more psychedelic themed album more than any other Jan and Dean records.

Surf City (song): "Surf City" is a song written by Brian Wilson and Jan Berry about a fictitious surf spot where there are "two girls for every boy."  It was first recorded and made popular by the American duo Jan and Dean in 1963, and their single became the first surf song to become a national number-one hit.

Musicianship of Brian Wilson: The songwriting of American musician Brian Wilson, co-founder and multi-tasking leader of the Beach Boys, is widely considered to be among the most innovative and significant of the late 20th century.  His combined arranging, producing, and songwriting skills also made him a major innovator in the field of music production.  In a 1966 article that asks "Do the Beach Boys rely too much on sound genius Brian?"  brother and bandmate Carl Wilson responded that every member of the group contributes ideas, but admitted that Brian was most responsible for their music.  Dennis Wilson is quoted: "Brian Wilson "is" the Beach Boys.  He is the band.  We're his fucking messengers.  He is all of it.  Period.  We're nothing.  He's everything."

The song was written and composed by Brian Wilson, Artie Kornfeld, Roger Christian and Jan Berry at Brian Wilson's mother's house in Santa Monica.  It was part of the teenage tragedy song phenomenon of that period, and one of the most popular such selections of all time.

In the early 1960s, they were pioneers of the California Sound and vocal surf music styles popularized by the Beach Boys.  Among their most successful songs was 1963's "Surf City", the first surf song to top the Hot 100.  Their other charting top 10 singles were "Drag City" (1963), "The Little Old Lady from Pasadena" (1964), and "Dead Man's Curve" (1964); the last was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2008.

Popsicle (song): "Popsicle" is a song written by Buzz Cason, and Bobby Russell for the American rock band Jan & Dean.  The song was originally released on their 1963 album, "Drag City".  After Jan Berry's near fatal car accident near Dead Man's Curve in 1966, Dean Torrence had one last effort to save Jan & Dean's name by releasing a new album with "Popsicle" as the title track.  The new album consisted of all previously released songs.  Popsicle was then released as a single with the B side being a remake of the The Beatle's, "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)".  "Popsicle" hit as high as 21 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 in the later half of 1966 when it was rereleased as a single.
