Review

"[C]hronologically details the Beach Boys' musical highs and lows up to 1976, supplementing studio logs and set lists with sharp analysis."

Publisher's note

A fascinating blow-by-blow account of the rise of this popular and critically acclaimed band sheds light on the origins of the group, the rivalry with the Beatles, the release of the influential "Pet Sounds," and the debilitating nervous breakdown of Brian Wilson, the group's creative genius. Original.

Annotation

Perhaps the most exhaustive existing chronicle of the Beach Boys' activities during their heyday, with detailed entries from 1961 to 1976, THE BEACH BOYS: THE DEFINITIVE DIARY captures the minutiae of the band members' day-to-day lives from their early-'60s tours in both the U.S. and Europe, through their mid-'60s glory days as one of the decade's most inspired bands, to their early-'70s creative doldrums. It also includes invaluable information on the studio players who performed on such major recordings as 1967's WILD HONEY and the legendary unfinished 1966 album, SMILE. With informative (the song title "Caroline No" was actually Brian Wilson's mishearing of the phrase "Carol, I know,") and sometimes macabre (mass murderer and cult leader Charles Manson recorded with the band in 1968) snippets of information, as well as fascinating ephemera (like the transcript of a studio argument between the band and the Wilson brothers' father, Murry), the DIARY is an invaluable artifact of the behind-the-scenes workings of one of the Sixties' signature bands.
