“Beach Boys Concert” by The Beach Boys - album review
features in: (B-list) Album Chart of 1964 ● (B-list) Album Chart of the 1960s |
Frantic live renditions that come complete with knicker wetting shriekers. Oh good. To boot, it turns out that “Fun Fun Fun” and “I Get Around” are studio renditions, "speeded up" and "overdubbed with screaming" to blend in with the general ambience. This tatty desecration of their craft provided them with their first Number One in the Billboard album charts. What is WRONG with people?
