Deal Alert / The Beach Boys: Smile Sessions 9-disc deluxe box set

The Beach Boys Grammy-winning Smile Sessions box is enormous, luxurious and indulgent. This massive nine-disc set (5CDs, 2LPs and 2x 7″ singles) also comes with a 60-page book and poster and has cost on average around £100 since it was issued at the end of 2011. Now though, you can take advantage of a great price on Amazon Italy and grab a bargain by picking this up it for less than half price.

At the time of writing this wonderful set is a little over €57 which equates to just over £40.
