Pet Sounds remains a story of personal triumph. Brian Wilson fought his label, his bandmates, and his family to bring the album to reality. Against all odds, he harnessed his mental state for genius. He produced and inspired two of music's greatest album ever. "Without Pet Sounds, Sgt. Pepper never would have happened," the Beatles' producer George Martin later said. "Pepper was an attempt to equal Pet Sounds." The most beautiful vocal harmonies ever recorded, in my humble opinion. I think that Pet Sounds might be the greatest pop album ever made.

As far as rock music swan songs go, this might be the best there's ever been. From the iconic opening bass line of "Come Together" to the ambitious Side 2 medley to the solemnity-subverting "Her Majesty," the entire album is an unqualified triumph. The medley on Abbey Road always gives me goosebumps and gives me that a feeling of pure joy that no album ever since has. A true masterpiece and and of course a classic album! It definitely deserves it's praise!
