I have nothing to say about Pet Sounds that hasn’t already been said a billion times by everybody over the years.
It’s a living, breathing, beautiful piece of art.

Just listened through the whole of #PetSounds in recognition of the passing this week of #BrianWilson
Remains one of my favourite records.
Not quite sure what to follow it with, frankly.
Maybe Sergeant Pepper’s?

A little-known homage to #BrianWilson , but fair warning, a real earworm
https://youtu.be/eMAKn1tww6A -
R.I.P. #BrianWilson. The man who composed, arranged, and played the songs that inspired the #Beatles to write their most successful albums.
I was not even born when #PetSounds hit the charts, but I am deeply impressed.

Brian Wilson has left us, but his music lives on. I discovered the Beach Boys through his legendary “rivalry” with McCartney—and our shared love of bass. Here’s my tribute to one of pop’s greatest innovators. 🎶 #BrianWilson #BeachBoys #PetSounds #GoodVibrations

Coming directly on the heels of #petsounds and #smile, #wildhoney is a very strong album, some would say the #beachboys best, but it’s still a bit under the radar. One of my faves and I still need a #mono copy. I saw #brianwilson do Pet Sounds here in #pdx a few years back and he was amazing. RIP. #nowplaying #vinyl #recordcollection @vinylrecords
