Surfer Girl (1963)
At first glance, I thought "holy hell, two albums in the same year?" but than I realized that that notion was crazy based on how good of an impression this album left upon first listen. I put off listening to The Beach Boys for a little while, because they can get a little overwhelming at first (at least in my experience) knowing how many more albums there are to listen to. But they do have a very refreshing and relaxing sound, evident in this one album alone. There was a nice sunny vacation feel to this album as their was with the others that i've listened to.

The Surfer Moon, I really like the slow pace it takes, makes it much easier to focus in on the vocals than anything else. I think i'll take some time away from The Beach Boys and listened to the next album in a week or so, because that seems to have a better effect than giving it all a listen as quick as possible. Not sure why that wasn't obvious before, but I tend to get over excited sometimes.
