The Beach Boys

Help! This is Brian's most personal track. It explains so much about him.

I’ve been sitting here working my way through their entire discography, and I honestly can't get over how much absolutely crushes it. Don't get me wrong, their other records definitely have their own merits, but there was just something about this one that grabbed me right from the jump. I suppose I'll see where the rest of the journey takes me. 🙂

I thought I might try to breathe some life back into this group by bringing up a classic. I’m curious to hear what everyone thinks about Surf rock lately—it feels like this particular track still sounds incredibly fresh, even though it actually dates all the way back to 1962, I suppose.

The Beach Boys ~ Surfin' Safari (1962)

Paul McCartney once called "God Only Knows" "The greatest song ever written."

This track actually inspired 'Surfin' USA'.
