Today in 2012, The Beach Boys released their 29th studio album, That’s Why God Made the Radio. Produced by Brian, the album was recorded to coincide with the band’s 50th anniversary. The album debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, becoming the group’s highest-charting studio album since 1965’s Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!). The Guardian called it “the best thing Brian Wilson has put his name to in the last 30 years.” The closing suite of “From There to Back Again,” “Pacific Coast Highway” and “Summer’s Gone” ranks with Brian’s best. What’s your favorite track? #2012 @thebeachboys #summersgone

Today in 1962, The Beach Boys released “Surfin’ Safari.” Written by Brian and Mike, it peaked at No. 14 on The Billboard Hot 100, and it was backed by “409” which also became a chart hit and the ‘Boys first double-sided it single. Brian called it “a still song with a simple C-F-G chord pattern that I came up with one day while trying to play the piano the way Chuck Berry played the guitar.” #1962 @thebeachboys #surfinsafari
Happy Belated Birthday to Brian’s dear friend @nancysinatra who turned 84 on June 8th!

“Pet Sounds is an unbelievable record. It’s like classical music. Wonderful compositions, beautiful singing. I think the compositions stand up to any kind of interpretation. I’ve heard ‘Put Your Head On My Shoulder’ played on the cello and it sounds like a piece of music that’s been with us for hundreds and hundreds of years. It sounds like it’s always been there. And I think maybe in a hundred years’ time people will be playing their songs on the piano trying to work out where they came from.” – Elvis Costello @elviscostello #petsounds
This week in 2002, Brian Wilson Presents Pet Sounds Live was released. It features a performance of The Beach Boys iconic 1966 album, recorded by Brian and his band at the Royal Festival Hall in London from January of that year. Here’s “You Still Believe In Me.” #2002 #petsounds #live #london
Just in case you missed it, check out the lyric video for “Strong,” Brian’s recent duet with Glen Campbell. The track features beautiful swelling harmonies and instrumental experimentation reminiscent of Brian’s 1965 production of “Guess I’m Dumb,” performed by Glen.
