Title: Disc::proper BBs albums .vs. thrown together contractual obligation... Post by: kookadams on April 15, 2015, 12:53:08 PM Ive seen ALOT of misconceptions of the beach boys solid work vs the mediocrity following Holland w the exception of Love You. With 15 big ones being a mix of covers and old rehashed outtakes and Love You being BW solo w the BB name slapped on it... MIU, light album and keepin the summer alive werent just poor albums, they had no hit singles, hardly anything regarded as rockNroll and to sum it up those albums have no substantial historical value whatsoever...yet Surfer Girl-All Summer Long-Summer Days-Pet Sounds-Smiley Smile-Sunflower were/are the greatest and most substantial output by any band in history...and fifty yrs after their debut they put out a brand new lp that almost tops the chart..milestone to say the least.

I've also seen a lot of posts that don't make a hell of a lot of sense and this one is in the top five. Title: Re: Disc::proper BBs albums .vs. thrown together contractual obligation... Post by: job on April 15, 2015, 01:08:08 PM Except that LA was a fantastic album. KTSA was a decent album.

Post by: Larry Franz on April 15, 2015, 07:05:35 PM Theory: Discuss which albums were proper Beach Boys albums vs. those that were thrown together merely to meet a contractual obligation. If there is a thesis, it might be that this distinction makes sense and is worth discussing.
If only kookadams would speak.... Title: Re: Disc::proper BBs albums .vs. thrown together contractual obligation...

Wild Honey was quickly written & recorded after the Hawaii concert recordings failed to meet expectations. Therefore, it is a "contractual obligation" release. Actually, Smiley Smile probably is too.
