The Beach Boys Today!

This kind of music feels like unicorns puking rainbows. It's funny and colourful at first sight, but it's always the same (a fuckin' rainbow!) and when you look into the details, it's pretty gross (I'm 99% sure they were all sexual harassers). And it's not even one of their most known records; it once again makes me wonder why we have this and some much more interesting/meaningful records are not here (I mean, apart from the fact the list was done by a group of old American white dudes).

This was the album that came out after Brian Wilson had to give up touring for health reasons, but a year before Pet Sounds. It’s an ok collection of pop tunes with two bangers (Do You Wanna Dance and Help Me Ronda) but a lot of filler for an album that’s less than 30 minutes. The worst bit is the last track which is just two minutes of studio chatter. I initially thought this was a special feature, but it’s on the original release. Lazy, lazy Beach Boys.
