The Astronauts also had an instrumentals only album in Japan at the time.

It's a bit funny that the Astronauts album doesn't contain any surf tracks at all while the Beach Boys one does.

Ask Mike Love to tell you about how he wrote all those instrumentals.

I've put together my own "mixed tape" collection of BB instros, from the early ones to Pet Sounds and beyond. Mine has 22 songs. I included the unreleased (rightfully so) instro "Punchline" (Good Vibs Box Set) and the instro by The Survivors who weren't actually the BB's but it was Brian Wilson and his friends Bob Norberg, Dave Nowlen, and Richard Alarian. It's a very pre-Pet Sounds tune.

Their 'instrumental hits' was also released on CD, with more songs. I got this Japanese released CD album from 1994 (pictures copied from Discogs):
