i don't get smile
but then my problem is that i adore pet sounds. i love it so much. and i love it because it's brian wilson's compositional genius tied to tony asher's superlative heartbreak lyrics.
what does smile offer? songs about fucking vegetables. thanks a bunch van dyke parkes.
there are amazing songs on smile. 'good vibrations' is rightly seen as the beach boys' peak. but i don't need the wondermints version of it. and i say this as someone who's loved the live shows (well, the 'pet sounds' ones. i didn't bother with 'smile')

I found it a little awkward going when I first heard it, but I kept listening to it, and gradually it made more and more sense - it slowly connected to its '67 sketches. It maybe a slightly different thing to the original, but it's a wonderful album all the same and really worth sticking with.ianw said:

You havent heard these, and you're criticizing the Beach Boys? These songs are the foundation stones of the oeuvre.
