Agree. This song was the hook that lured me into the rest of the album.

Brian on why he loves God Only Knows: "Because Paul McCartney said it was his favourite song"

"New rule: Having anything to do with the creation of a punk rawk version of "All You Need Is Love" (never with the horn part because lol hornz are silly and dumb) gets you the death penalty. No questions, no trial, it's your fault, pick out your coffin." - runnersdialzero

Can't fathom all these votes for Moonshine!!?? It's my undisputed favourite song on the album. That melody, those synths, the heartbreaking lyrics and Dennis' equally heartbreaking delivery... It's one of those songs I can listen to repeatedly without ever tiring of it. Oh and the fade - heavenly! Hey ho...
I had the same reaction...whoa...Moonshine is majestic in every way. It was for sure Dennis' favorite track on POB, he said that many times. Also Carl and Audree's favorite. The fade is one of the coolest things ever. Weird.

Great info Jon, Moonshine would def be top 3 for me..hard to choose the best from them

I know FMF is heartfelt and emotional and all but its not much of a song for me so

Welcome back, one and all, to the first thread of the Beach Boys Solo Survivor.

The Solo Survivors are going to tackle the main solo albums of members of the Beach Boys. This will not include solo albums released prior to membership in the Beach Boys. This will also not include works done by members who were participating in different groups (ie David Marks in The Moon or The Marksmen) nor will it include "Best Of" albums or rehash albums (ie Summertime Cruisin' by Mike Love and Bruce Johnston will not be included. This also means we will not be including Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE or I Just Wasn't Made For These Times.) Lastly, we will not be including EP's or Unreleased Albums.

Some of the Solo Survivor albums may be hard to come across. Smilers are encouraged to locate legal copies of the solo albums. I expect these rounds to go quicker with less voting than normal. No big deal.

So without further ado...

Quote
Pacific Ocean Blue is Dennis Wilson's only studio album, released in 1977. It was the debut and final studio album released by this member of the Beach Boys, and when released, was both warmly received critically, and noted for outselling the Beach Boys' contemporary efforts.


7 of us already know the "funky things". (7)

Per the usual, vote for your LEAST FAVORITE TRACK. The track with most votes will be voted off.

Tally on August 5th

End of the Show

Round#1 - What's Wrong July 18
Round#2 - Friday Night July 21
Round#3 - Pacific Ocean Blues July 23
Round#4 - You and I July 25
Round#5 - Dreamer July 29
Round#6 - Moonshine July 31
Round#7 - Rainbows August 3

Of all the Survivor rounds we have done, this one has been the most difficult for me. Losing Moonshine is pretty disappointing. That was a Top Three track, if ever there was one.  Cry

My eighth vote goes to.... End of the Show.

Hey Little Tomboy is creepy. Banging women by the pool is fun and conjures up warm summer thoughts a Beach Boys song should.

Agree. This song was the hook that lured me into the rest of the album.

  Indeed. "Moonshine" is the epitome of Dennis Wilson heart and soul. It would have made a classic Beach Boys' track as well.

  Time to say goodbye to "Time".
