Produced by [[Terry Melcher]], it is the only album not to feature any new contributions from [[Brian Wilson]], and has been regarded as the band's critical and commercial low point, failing to chart in either the [[US]] or [[UK]] and receiving almost unanimously negative reviews. In North America, it was the group's first album to be released only on CD and cassette, with a rare vinyl pressing released only in South Korea. The Beach Boys did not record another album of predominantly original material until ''[[That's Why God Made the Radio]]'' in 2012. ''Summer in Paradise'' was left out of [[Capitol Records|Capitol]]'s Beach Boys [[CD]] reissue campaign of 2000 to 2001, as well as all other reissues for most of the group's discography. Both it and its predecessor, ''[[Still Cruisin']]'', are currently out of print. ''Summer in Paradise'', along with ''Still Cruisin'', were pulled from later re-releases due to poor public reception.
