A 'The Beach Boys’ egy 1961-ben alakult amerikai rock együttes, a rockzene egyik legnagyobb hatású együttese. A csapat eleinte a szörf, a lányok és az autók zenei szószólójaként tett szert népszerűségre, ám a fő dalszerző Brian Wilson mind növekvő ambícióinak hatására idővel, jóval innovatívabbá vált zenéjük, és az utánuk következő majdnem összes zenekarra hatással voltak.

Fennállásuk során 28 stúdióalbumot, 5 koncertalbumot, és számos válogatásalbumot jelentettek meg. Az évek során a kiadók számos újabb válogatásalbumot jelentettek meg, így jelentleg az Amazon.com oldalon több mint 300 Beach Boys album közül lehet válogatni.

A albumok 1961-től 1984-ig hanglemezen jelentek meg, az 1985-ös The Beach Boys albumtól CD-n. Az évek során a lemezek formátumokban megjelentették, többek között CD-n, digitális letöltés, Compact Cassette, illetve Minidiscen is.
