The Beach Boys
In 1996, he created the first true stereo mix of the Beach Boys' 1966 album Pet Sounds and has co-produced nearly all of the band's archival releases, including The Pet Sounds Sessions (1997), Endless Harmony Soundtrack (1998), Hawthorne, CA (2003), and The Smile Sessions (2011) as well as the Feel Flows (2021) and Sail On Sailor (2022) box sets. In addition to earning three Grammy Awards, he was nominated for Best Engineered Album for his work on Brian Wilson Presents Smile (2004). In 2014, Linett appeared as Beach Boys' engineer Chuck Britz in the Brian Wilson biopic Love & Mercy. To create remixes of the Beach Boys' catalog, Linett uses ProTools as his DAW of choice, although he keeps analog tape machines for the purpose of transferring to digital.
