60 years ago today, The Beach Boys released โWouldnโt It Be Niceโ with โGod Only Knowsโ as its B-side. Few singles have ever packed so much beauty, ambition, and emotion into two tracks.
OTD 11FEB1964 The #Beatles on their first US visit, took a sleeper train from New York to Washington DC, travelling through the heavy snow and performed their first US concert at the Washington Coliseum. Below is the opening song โRoll Over Beethovenโ (colour) #TheBeatles
The A-side of the โGod Only Knowsโ single released yesterday, sixty years ago was โWouldnโt It Be Nice.โ Hereโs Brian in 2006 talking about the song. Tell us what you think!
Man, Rubber Soul is so good. One thing I particularly like about this song is how the percussion comes in a few bars before you expect, anticipating the song picking up. I think it contributes to that restless feeling mentioned here.
