There's three distinct periods in the Beach Boys career. Pre, post and Pet Sounds. This album is the culmination of the pre-Pet Sounds era. When Brian was still writing songs about girls, being a teenager, cars and girls. Before he scraps the drums, bass, guitar surf music style he releases what can be argued to be their best album. If, by some unknown reason you find Pet Sounds boring (only because I read the reviews in this site) then this album is important to know where Brian was coming from. This is the album of songs Mike Love was referring to when he told Brian he was f*cking with the formula when he first heard Pet Sounds. But Brian was moving past the beach, cars and girls topics and stretching the sound...especially in "Kiss Me Baby" "She Knows Me Too Well". Wonderful!

Similar to revolver for the Beatles, the last 'album' before they started getting conceptual.

The best of the 'regular' Beach Boys albums, before we were all shocked with Pet Sounds. Showing signs of greater depth than previously. Brian Wilson is getting restless, and we're benefiting. #2 in their catalogue.

Gorgeous melodies & harmonies, and lyrics of innocence. This album sums up The Beach Boys and youth in general.

Pet Sounds is better as a whole, but this is easily The Beach Boys most consistently brilliant effort and the 2nd best album of their career.
