Surfing: surfer girl. Car: car crazy cutie. Love: kiss me baby. 70s: california saga/california. Harmonies: too many to narrow down. And for 70s I wanted to say Til I die but I think it was recorded in 69 but came out in 71..

These are ALWAYS so HARD to do. And the 'answers' can easily change day to day. Best Surfing Song: 'Surfin USA' because it grabbed my ears and made me a lifelong fan. NO regrets. Best Car Song: 'Custom Machine'. Always wanted my own version. Finally got it. With a KICK ASS sound system. [for playin' Brian/Beach Boys tunes on primarily] Best Love Song: 'Only With You'...Carl Version. [Our wedding song...and sho nuff...Lucy prefers Dennis' version.  ] Best 70's Song: I'd go with Surf's Up...except...well...YOU know. So...'Add Some/Add Some /Add Some/Add Some Music...To Your Day' Best/Most Beautiful Beach Boys Harmonies Song: Tie...'God Only Knows' [who?] *a n d* 'Our Prayer'. Even their best 'instrumentals' have voices in the mix. |

Since sunflower was recorded in 69 would songs from surfs up be considered their first output from the 70s? And other than surfs up til I die and take a load off your ft the rest of the album was recorded in 70 rt?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Crap on a stick!!! So add Some Music to Your Day is dated...and I become a child of the 60s? Well I was anyway. In THAT case then...I'd substitute 'Add Some Music to Your Day' with 'Sail On Sailor' as their best 70s song. Disagree completely with the premise that 'Love You' is the exception to the rule and that everything after 'Endless Summer' is "hodgepodge except Love You". 'Love You' is WAY too short on hodge and FAR too long on podge. Likely every 3 albums gave you enough material to make 1 decent lp. Sorry to Woody's Brother. I just really can't sit here and not make a noise when someone suggests that Love You is somehow 'all that'. I'd rank it just barely above Summer in Paradise and Smiley Smile as one of the top 4 or 5 worst Beach Boys albums ever. OK...Top 6. 'Surfin Safari' is pretty mediocre. I'd be 100% leary of trying to encourage a new fan to enlist with 'Love You'. |
