The Beach Boys (funk, rock, albums, quote, memory)

Beach Boys- I enjoy listening their songs.

The Beach Boys influenced Kraftwerk

No, really.

I still like to hear their music. The Beach Boys had such a unique individual sound & beat to their music, unlike all other rock bands. (Then, and now). Brian Wilson was a talented songwriter, vocalist in my opinion. A major influence with the music of today.

The Beach Boys were so brilliant.
Pet Sounds inspired Pepper.

I heard about that, they wanted their muisc to sound like Germany the way the Beach boys made their music sound like California.

I love the beach boys, I only have pet sounds and some massive 60 track compilation I got for £5. None of my local CD stores sell anything else by them.

the beach boys are incredible with the exception of that mike love *******. pet sounds, friends, wild honey, holland, carl & the passions are my personal favorites. brian wilson is one of the few true geniuses in pop music history. and carl wilson... easily one of the most over-looked and underrated singer/songwriter/producers ever.

I've been a fan of the Beach Boys since my 'Youf'.

The production, songwriting and arrangement are still reference to good producers even now.

Listen and enjoy

The Beach Boys were one of the greatest bands ever. Pet Sounds is possibly the greatest album ever made.

I just regret that Brian Wilson wasn't able to get SMiLE done when he and the Beach Boys were in their prime. The version he did in 2004 with the Wondermints isn't bad, but Brian's voice is just not the same.

Pet Sounds and SMiLE could have been the best pair of albums any one band produced (though, clearly debatable).

I think the most underrated track they did was "Surfer Girl." Everything on Pet Sounds is well-rehashed, as are most of the famous tracks meant for SMiLE ("Good Vibrations," "Heroes & Villains," "Surf's Up"), but "Surfer Girl" is generally lumped in with their earlier surf-pop hits. However, it's a beautiful, lush track that deserves as much regard as any of the Beatles' or Beach Boys' later tracks.
