I'd say that Wild Honey suits every Beach Boy, really. You can tell they're all really into it, Dennis is vibing on his drums, everyone is contributing cool vocals, Carl and Mike especially, the rest of the group are dealing out straight stuff on their instrumental bits and it seems like such a nice vibe for all involved. I love Wild Honey  ;D

Brian told me that Stevie Wonder was a band favorite at the time and was a big reason why they did the album. He did a good job writing and singing on it too.

I'd have to go back and read No One Here Gets Out Alive, but wasn't Wild Honey one of Jim Morrison's favorite albums?

Brian: Pet Sounds (his experimental side and love for the Wall of Sound just shines through on this one)
Carl: Wild Honey
Dennis: Friends/Sunflower
Al: Holland (to me it suits what I know of his personality).
Mike: Gotta agree with Paulos :lol: Summer In Paradise

Brian: Pet Sounds (Genius, Masterful, One Of The Best)
Dennis: Friends (Chilled, Humble, Peace)
Carl: Wild Honey (Soul, Happiness, To the point)
Al: Holland (Most Folky, Not appreciated, The Album Cover?)
Mike: 20/20 (Hodge Podge, Love/Hate, Flip Flopper)
Bruce: Sunflower (Silicon copy of Pet Sounds/Brian)
David: Surfer Girl (Great, but overshadowed by the rest)

Right here goes...

Brian - Love You (Pet Sounds might be his best but Love You is the essence of how I see Brian as a person - complex, childlike, quirky, honest)

Mike - All Summer Long (I was tempted to go for SiP and I think when Mike said something about trying to do the quintessential summer album with that one he meant it, however I think ASL comes a helluva lot closer to being that album so i've gone for that.

Al - Holland (Al's a folky at heart and his roots shone through on this album)

Carl - Wild Honey (I think Carl felt right at home singing R&B tinged songs like Darlin' and Wild Honey so it's WH for me)

Dennis - POB (He perhaps shone a little brighter in certain parts of Sunflower but POB is like glimpsing into the soul of the man, sometimes it's beautiful, other times it's ugly but it's always fascinating)

Bruce - Sunflower (Bruce is in no way a rocker, he was right at home on Sunflower on some of the more schmaltzy laid back tunes and even though his songs have detractors I don't doubt for a second that he put his heart and soul into writing them)
