The Beach Boys have definitely been on my radar as far as a deep dive into their albums, I just haven’t gotten to that yet. I know the hits (“I Get Around” probably being my favorite) and have listened to a few of their albums, including PET SOUNDS. I also listened to a little bit of SUMMER IN PARADISE out of genuine curiosity and, yes, those songs are just as horrible as people make them out to be. But in general, I’d say I’m a fan, even “Kokomo”, which I know is a hot debate topic between Beach Boys fans, I still like that song.
I too am happy to see you back, Homok. Hoping everything’s going better for you.
