Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
in the kind of world where we belong
-- The Beach Boys
Yes, it is in fact true, I have rekindled my obsession with The Beach Boys. I grew up on oldies and country and the Boys are among my favorites. I caught the end of a John Stamos produced mini-series on them the other night. I saw this movie years ago when it was first out, but missed the end of it. So I got to see the end and I was once again hooked.
I went out to Best Buy and picked up The Sounds of Summer. It's a great collection, and I can't seem to remove it from my CD player. Anyway, you may think the songs about cars and surfing are infantile, but Brian Wilson is a genius and this music started a whole new kind of pop music. Long live The Beach Boys!
