Book Reviews of The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds (33 1/3)
Book Review: Pet Sounds is great
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a huge fan of Fusilli's crime novels(Hard,Hard City;Closing Time; etc.)so I tried this book, even though I'm not much of a Beach Boys fan. It is AMAZING! Fusilli describes Brian Wilson, the album, Pet Sounds, that changed his life, and tells us why it's a great album. By the time you are finished with this book, you want to listen to the album to see if it is as great and unusual as Fusilli says it is. You'll also want to read Fusilli's crime novels because Wilson is referenced in them. A great book by a great writer about a sad, misunderstood album from the Sixties.
Summary of The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds (33 1/3)
The album that Brian Wilson created in an attempt to outdo the Beatles' Rubber Soul album. Worshipped by music lovers for its harmonies it is also regarded as an early demonstration of how to use the recording studio as an instrument. Brian Wilson has recently been touring the album again, playing it to thousands of devoted fans. It includes classic tracks such as Wouldn't it Be Nice, Don't Talk and God Only Knows.Music Books
