This album is awesome, but it's the only Beach Boys album I've been recommended, though I keep hearing they are a band at the level of the Beatles, who've put out tons of classics. So what's the next I should check out? Or all they all boring, surf-pop albums?

Sepstrup - This is the only remarkable Beach Boys album I've heard, besides Smile, but I've only heard that in its Brian Wilson incarnation. There is one excellent anthology type collection I've come across which has virtually everything they've recorded. I'll try to edit in the title, it's beyond me at the moment. But I guess I'd recommend that. I've always seen them as more of a song band rather than a band whose strength was albums.

I honestly and truly believe this is the best album ever made. Every moment is a piece of perfection, and, though having heard a lot, I have never found anything that even equaled it in terms of precision, performance, or songwriting.This Message Edited On 01.23.06

For anyone looking for other Beach Boys, you need to get (in this order):
Sunflower
Surf's Up
Today
Friends
Wild Honey
Summer Days (and Summer Nights)
Smiley Smile
20/20
The first three are also 5-star albums in my opinion, but they don't rival Pet Sounds. Sunflower almost does, though.
SMiLE, if the completed version had been recorded with real Beach Boys vocals, would be number 2.

Good review, classic album. The Beach Boys are really a song band though, and I personally love those early, surf songs. Oh and "Good Vibrations" wasn't put on Pet Sounds cause Brian Wilson didn't finish it until later in 1966.

Uh, where's Endless Summer on that list? Another great Beach Boys album.

I saw a guy in a movie store that looked like Brian Wilson one time.

I have this in mono, and the quality is so horrible I can't even listen to it.

Brian Wilson stated in an interview that Rubber Soul inspired Pet Sounds, and Pet Sounds in return inspired Sgt. Pepper.I've heard a little Beach Boys beyond the classics that everyone knows, and they seem pretty spiffy.This Message Edited On 06.09.06

Jimi Hendrix did not inspire Sgt. Pepper. He paid tribute to it by performing it at the Saville Theatre in London, Paul McCartney attended, and claimed it to be a great honor. Jimi had no impact on the writing of the album.This Message Edited On 06.09.06

Indeed, Mr. Bron-Yr-Aur. To add, Sir Paul McCartney has said that "No one is educated musically until they've heard Pet Sounds...It is a total, classic record that is unbeatable in many ways." Although, to be sure, Paul is merley being polite and humble- Pet Sounds can be beaten by any one the Beatles post '65 albums, in every way.

Pet Sounds is the best album ever recorded, objectively speaking. But the Beatles have better songs.
Actually maybe that isn't objective... but I have albums which I personally prefer over Pet Sounds, but I don't consider them better than it, if that makes any sense at all.

I haven't heard much of their material, but what I have heard I really like. Is this the beach Boys album I should get first?
