A lot of their stuff up till 1966 wasn't recored with the best sound, certainly not as well as our guy's stuff lol. Reminded me of the murky sound the early Stones has.


Nuh uh!

I think the lack of a unique drummer gives me this view. The great vocals and harmonies cover up the lack of beat or swing in the background

Hal Blaine played the drums on California Girls.  Plain, simple drumming...

lol oops i better quit criticizing them. Its hard sometimes to look at other groups stuff in an unbiased way as obviously our guys are way above the rest and an impossible benchmark.

In the summer of 1966, we had Pet Sounds and Revolver.  Both albums were very innovative.  I was fascinated by them both.

It wasn't on Pet Sounds but rather released as a single in the Fall.  Good Vibrations blew me and others away.  We waited to see how The Beatles would respond.

Dennis had only been playing drums for two and a half years when this was filmed.

This looks really good; it's being released on May 24 on Disney+:

I remember back in 1990, I think it was, reading about Paul raving about Pet Sounds. So I bought the album and was unimpressed and puzzled by what I wasn't getting (i.e., understanding). It took years to grow on me, but now I can truly appreciate it.

I’m a bit the same with Pet Sounds. Took a bit to get but i enjoy it now. Overall though I’ve never been as keen on the Beach Boy sound. I prefer it in small doses.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who took awhile to appreciate it.  :)

Same here! Small doses will do it.  :)
