I kept asking myself, "when is this album going to end?!" Couldn't tell you a single track that stood out or interested me.

WTF was that

Not for me. It seemed self indulgent and dull. Sorry

My god this was torture. So boring, so long.

the beach boys this was not. I can see why he only made one record. He probably single handedly put Messina out of business.

I tried like four different times to finish the entire thing but it's just so boring to me. Doesn't make me feel anything.

Absolutely nothing to this album.

not for me

ik kon hier echt helemaal niks mee.

Can't stand it

Wow... a 2 hour double album... It was interesting. I can hear a lot of things in this album from Ozzy to Tom Petty. I don't know if I love it yet when I realized I'm halfway through the first album but there is a lot on it that is pretty. The longer this album went on the worse I felt about it. My god it is long.

Opittua äänimassaa vuodelta 77.

Not my thing.

It’s like it tries to be so grand. I don’t like the horns in this, or the piano, or his voice.

terrible. I didn't finish

Should have tried harder to get Brian out of bed.

Quase 2h de meh

This was a tough listen.

Yeah nah

Didn’t really like it

Not my thing.

No me gusta

Standard 70's West Coast fare here, it is ok but doesn't grab me as a classic. has some catchy tunes like "What's Wrong" the Title Track "Pacific Ocean Blues" and "You and I". But to be honest the drugs and alcohol (and probably his relationship with Charles Manson) were taking there toll by this time. As I say not a memorable album for me and a bit boring really.

"Pacific Ocean Blue". A tropical title that is not that unusual for a Beach Boy. But of course, he'll deliver music here that is different from the famous band's music. And the result is just a bunch of forgettable rock and ballads. It's such a boring album. Dennis Wilson himself panned this album for "having no substance". And... it DOES have substance -- a product of his personal stuggles for the past seven years -- but it still sucks. The more I listen to moody rock music, the more I learn how I hate it. This album is clearly not for me, and I'm not sure if it should be on this list. "Dreamer" is such a slick banger, though. I wish there was more of the track's tropical energy throughout the album.

Not diggin it

Wilson was into alcohol, drugs, and Manson...and it shows.

To me, the most memorable song on the album is "School Girl", which is memorable for the wrong reasons. I'd much rather listen to "Pet Sounds".

Musiikkihan sinällään oli ihan ok, mut 2 vitun tuntia aivan liikaa mulle. Koko viikonlopun ajan yritin kuunnella loppuun, mut en tainnu ees ehtiä ku piti välillä muutakin kuunnella. Taidan olla musiikillisesti sivistymätön paskiainen

Sounds very much of its time ie like Beach Boys, Beatles etc. Not for me
