    or any other season for that matter

    who would’ve thot that just a naive album cover with a photo with boys casually lowkey feeding animals at the san diego zoo would be the most groundbreaking achievement and heartbreaking experience in history of music of all time

    and to think pet sounds is the reason alone kevin shields made loveless in mono goat recognizing goat @PinkANDWhite @Ground

    do you guys listen to any weirder psychedelic stuff like primus or the butthole surfers? that s*** is definitely a acquired taste and a little harder hitting but jw

    mmm i like me some beach boys influenced psyche obv, it’s just fascinating to see how ppl pick that pet sounds/smile so unique style and arrangement into modern productions and make it more ambient or psyche than it ever was

    these set of songs are some of my fav in this style, amazing beach boys homages all over the place:

    as for the bands you mentioned, primus sounds familiar.. you into it @RVI ?
    i know @cotton_dockers loves butthole surfers tho!

    btw this reminds of a kevin shield quote about making m b v and how the structures are inspired by smile:

    The idea was to bring a lot of parts together, riffs or chord changes without making a song out of it.
    I wanted to see what would happen if I worked in a more impressionistic way, so that it only comes together at the end. I think I was probably a little influenced by The Beach Boys 'Smile' at the time.

    primal scream are the realest mfs on their first ep they recorded a studio cover of a beach boys song that TO THIS DAY remains to be heard only on bootleg !!! can’t top that tbh, gotta tip my hat off

    stereolab i never fully got into it (blasphemous i know they’re my people) but actually as of lately it’s starting to click, it kinda blows my mind they’re music are from the 90s and sounds like your most indie stuff from today scene, extremely ahead of its time tbh

    same for primus and butthole tho, the big homie cotton said some great stuff bout them iirc

    OH MAN the high lamas bro you gotta read this:

    breaks my heart a lil more every time i reread that story as much as it gets so funny in there

    the most “what could’ve been” in this legacy ...

    melinda has done good things (surely getting brian’s smile wouldn’t have got around without her talking brian into it) but getting andy paley away from brian to replace him with this joke that joe thomas might be the biggest crime in the history of the beach boys

    Solomon Burke (rip) one of the most underrated artist of his era as he help made rnb is and is a founding father king of soul music, yet doesn’t get as much the credit he deserves

    he passed away in 2010 after suffering for a whole of health issues, he had to be in a wheelchair due to his weight but still rocked shows internationally sitting on a throne on stage

    either way in 2002 he recorded and released “Don’t Give Up On Me” -which won best rnb album at the grammys none the less and had one of its song used on The Wire that’s on @Bad_Finger_Boogie - and what makes this one stand out is that there is some covers of unreleased songs of big names, such as “Stepchild” by Bob Dylan, a song Bob premiered live in 1978 and abandoned it there and never did anything with it afterwards.

    but more importantly and what interests us here is the following one, a Beach Boys cover.. and even if you try to have a guess at it you could NEVER come up with the right one as it’s so left field

    i’ve already mentioned the song story and posted itt but in 1996 Brian got back with the boys to make an original Beach Boys album, this would be the last session before Carl’s passing in 1997.
    two songs made the cut before the sessions were called off, and they are stellar new and original classic Brian songs he did with his great collaborator Andy Paley: one is “You’re Still A Mystery” that calls back to a more Pet Sounds type

    and the other is “Soul Searchin’” a soul type song with Carl on the lead vocals despite going through chemo treatement to fight his cancer absolutely kills this performance

    (there’s many other outstanding songs Brian and Andy both wrote and recorded during this era in this lvl of quality that could’ve made the album if the sessions kept on going and would’ve been an incredible come back)

    since it all got shelved away, these songs have been bootlegged thankfully but they’ve never done anything with it, not even for the 2012 comeback (and most likely final Beach Boys) album!! wth? altho Brian did use Soul Searchin’ on one of his solo album, these two songs finally got an official release in 2013 on the big boxset “Made In California” in honor of the bands 50th anniversary.

    but yes, this is what the Solomon Burke picked! Soul Searchin’! the soul song and final Beach Boys song with Carl Wilson that was back then unreleased and boy did he not phone it, he made that song his, a classic soul felt jam:

    and every time he performed live up until his death would make an introduction to it praising Brian and the boys “last night if you missed The Beach Boys you missed a treat” â˜ș

    depends what sort of music you’ve ventured before going into it, it’s definitely not an instant one listen album catchy, that’s why it wasn’t a hit, it’s a very complex rich pop album

    if you jump in it without context it’s hard to get ahold of just how magical it is you might feel out of place

    try to listen to some of the best songs from it as stand alone to get more into the feel of it

    as beautiful as god only knows imo

    or maybe try another album before going back into it, imo sunflower is far easier
