Beach Boys- Pet Sounds (1966)
Nominated by: Cheese and Biscuits
Pet Sounds is the Beach Boys' 11th album. Originally, it was only a hit album within the UK, receiving a less welcome reception in the US. Brian Wilson wrote most of the material and arranged many of the new yet strange recording techniques, such as the use of unorthodox instruments.
Another early concept album, it was seen as a masterpiece of psychedelic rock. It has been ranked No2 on Rolling Stones 500 Greatest Albums.
The album contains the huge hit 'God Only Knows'. The album and this song in particular are known to be very different from the earlier 'surfer dude' style the Beach Boys had. It became a lot more progressive and who knows? Maybe it made it better.
