Has this board ever done a "bracket" to vote for the best Beach Boys album?

[SonicVolcano]

Sunflower for me, I think. Definitely as a band working together.

Well, the Sunflower/Reverberation/Add Some Music/Landlocked (whatever name you want to give it) sessions as a whole. I think their most productive period ever as a band?

Maybe we could do an album by album "survivor" thread where each week presents all the tracks from a single album and every 4 days or so we vote off the least favorite track.

I was saying this just several posts up. Pixeltwin: Go for it!!

Ok I will!

 

Beach Boys Survivor #1: Surfin' Safari

Smile isn't a Beach Boys album.

Fair point.
But, if we don't include Smile, does anything really stand much of a chance of beating Pet Sounds?

I think Pet Sound would definitely win the "tournament." But I'm not as interested in the final result. I'm more intrigued to see individual match ups like "Today" vs. "Summer Days." Or "Surf's Up" vs. "Love You." Just using those as examples, I'm not sure how it would be set up. Seeing people vote on which albums they like better head-to-head would be a nice exercise.

There were polls where albums were pitted against each other: search for "twofer polls" in subject headings.

Edit- Oops, I forgot that particualr thread I linked to was a big flame war. Apologies.

This is getting so Hoffmanesque!

Yeah, the individual match-ups would be interesting to see.  I'm aware we did the two-fers against each other, but it would be neat to pair albums up randomly.
