Sounds of Summer was released in 2003 and initially debuted and peaked at No. 16 on the June 28, 2003-dated chart. This week, the set climbs to a new peak – No. 14.

The Beach Boys were last in the top 40 of the Billboard 200 chart in 2012 when the then-new studio album That’s Why God Made the Radio debuted and peaked at No. 3 and spent four nonconsecutive weeks inside the top 40.

In total, The Beach Boys have placed 56 albums on the Billboard 200, with 22 of them reaching the top 40.

Sounds of Summer is available in a standard 30-track edition and an expanded 80-track edition. All 30 of the songs on the standard version were top 40-charting hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, of the total 35 top 40s the group earned between 1962 and 2022. Songs on the standard edition include the No. 1s “I Get Around,” “Help Me, Rhonda,” “Good Vibrations” and “Kokomo,” alongside familiar favorites such as “Surfin’ U.S.A,” “California Girls” and “Wouldn’t It Be Nice.”

Sounds of Summer also makes its debut on Billboard’s Top Streaming Albums chart, bowing at No. 20.
