Although other Beach Boys albums have received greater critical acclaim, TODAY is almost unbeatable for its high percentage of unpretentious, infectious two-minute pop songs. The group's rock & roll roots are revisited with "Do You Wanna Dance" and "Good To My Baby." "Dance, Dance, Dance" is a highly underrated Brian Wilson song, complemented with gorgeous ballads such as "She Knows Me Too Well" and "Please Let Me Wonder." The seeds of PET SOUNDS' sunshine pop glory were sown with this impressive 1965 record. Later that year, the Boys took a brief look back at their summer-fun days with SUMMER DAYS & SUMMER NIGHTS, which contained the beach-party evergreens "California Girls" and "Help Me, Rhonda." Listening to such unassuming fare as "Amusement Parks U.S.A." it's hard to believe that the Beach Boys' pop art masterwork was mere months away.

Engineer: Chuck Britz

 
Artist Overview
Admired for both their infectious surfer music and their sophisticated, multi-tracked pop productions, the Beach Boys created a lasting impression on popular music through their complex harmonies and Brian Wilson's genius for composition and arrangement. Their 1966 album, PET SOUNDS, is a baroque/psychedelic-pop masterpiece that easily ranks among the most influential albums of the rock era. Brian's emotional difficulties eventually prevented him from performing, but his brothers and buddies carried on without him, singing his songs and spreading that California sunshine all over the world. In 1999, Brian launched a solo world tour, showcasing his Beach Boys compositions, and has continued to perform live as well.
