"Have to say pet sounds is one of my favourite albums.. sad to hear the news yesterday "
Fabio, we've finally found common ground! One of my top 10 albums easily.
I love his solo version of Love and Mercy. |

"A slightly off-beat one for me.
There is a superb track on Pet Sounds called "I Know There's An Answer". The arrangements are truly magnificent.
You mean Hang On To Your Ego 😉"
Yes, am aware it was re-written |

In truth … “Good Vibrations” it’s a winner when it first came out I remember being absolutely mesmerised by the sound, but then later finding out who were the backing musicians ( called the wrecking crew )a list of musical royalty ! Which was something else! It was one of the very first multi tracks of multi tracks which made it incredibly special
Safe onward journey Brian ! |

When he started recording again in the 90s he made an album with Don Was called I Just Wasn't Made for These Times, mostly new versions of older songs. His voice was weak compared to the 60s but this actually gives the songs more emotional depth after everything he'd been through. Highly recommended. |

I am old enough to remember Dad's big old Gramophone in the lounge with Valves and knobs to find MW, SW and LW radio stations, You'd stack about 10 45s on the turn table and Good vibrations was always in that 10 along with Barbara Ann.
They'd slap down 1 by 1. You'd hear the crackle and hiss and then belt it out as loud as you could. No wonder the valves packed up in the end. |

"My favourite is All Summer Long and it featured in the classic film American Graffitti."
A most remarkable film .. Harrison Ford ‘s first film role I believe and others
Great film of its day but has an innocence of tomorrow |

I remember loving the Chuck Berry inspired Surfin USA.
I would sing " if everybody had a notion,across the Usa" until a pal pointed out the opening line is ; " if everybody had an ocean" 
Still a fab tune |
