60 years ago today, The Beach Boys released an album that subsequently defined the ‘60s, ‘Pet Sounds.’ 🐕
Mixing conventional instruments with more uniques tools and techniques, the album features stunning melodies and lyrical themes on love, failed romance, and loss of innocence.
What’s your favorite track off the album? Listen to ‘Pet Sounds’ in Hi-Res on Qobuz.

@PatThomas1964 Interesting time for The Who and side projects. The Pete solo records are fantastic. Empty Glass, Cowboys, White City, what if they were Who records? 🤯Probably for the best the way it played out.

#ChurchOfRockAndRoll #81 Golden-voiced Carl Wilson resisted his draft notice to fight in the Vietnam War and sued the government as a conscientious objector. He won. He also led The Beach Boys through a fabulously hip and creative period, 1969-73 #CarlWilson#TheBeachBoys
@filthythanks@RichardS7370 Interesting cover with the song titles listed. They had pretty much quit doing this since the mid-60s. Maybe a throwback/nod to those early 60s folk records?
