I've listened to pet sounds and I like it well enough, but I don't see how it's anything but overrated.
How many people do you hear listening to the Beach Boys these days anyhow?
Aren't they really just a less clever version of the Beatles with sillier lyrics and less of a penchant for innovation?
I'm not sure, but I'm going to find out.

The Beach Boys were a huge influence on the Beatles, Paul McCartney says without Pet Sounds there wouldn't have been on Sgt. Peppers. Brian Wilsons pop arraignments are beautiful, and the recording techniques he introduced were very innovative. Its not just some overrated album thats placed high because it came out in the 60s.
