The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds ( ALL TIME TOP 2nd ALBUM After Sgt.Pepper Lonely Hearts)
The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
 Info: Pet Sounds is the eleventh studio album by the American rock band The Beach Boys, released May 16, 1966 on Capitol Records. It has been widely ranked as one of the most influential records ever released in western pop music and has been ranked at number #1 in several music magazines' lists of greatest albums of all time, including New Musical Express, The Times, Mojo Magazine, and Pure Pop. In 2003, It was ranked #2 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list. According to Acclaimedmusic.net, Pet Sounds is the most acclaimed album of all time by music journalists. Pet Sounds was created several months after Brian Wilson had quit touring with the band in order to focus his attention on writing and recording. In it, he wove elaborate layers of vocal harmonies, coupled with sound effects and unconventional instruments such as bicycle bells, buzzing organs, harpsichords, flutes, the Electro-Theremin, and dog whistles, along with the more usual keyboards and guitars. “Who’s gonna hear this shit?” Beach Boys singer Mike Love asked the band’s resident genius, Brian Wilson, in 1966, as Wilson played him the new songs he was working on. “The ears of a dog?” Confronted with his bandmate’s contempt, Wilson made lemonade of lemons. “Ironically,” he observed, “Mike’s barb inspired the album’s title.” Barking dogs — Wilson’s dog Banana among them, in fact — are prominent among the found sounds on the album. The Beatles made a point of echoing them on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band — an acknowledgment that Pet Sounds was the inspiration for the Beatles’ masterpiece. That gesture actually completed a circle of influence: Wilson initially conceived of Pet Sounds as an effort to top the Beatles’ Rubber Soul. Wilson essentially made Sounds without the rest of the band, using them only to flesh out the vocal arrangements. He even considered putting the album out as a solo project, and the first single, “Caroline, No,” was released under his own name. The deeply personal nature of the songs, which Wilson co-wrote primarily with lyricist Tony Asher, further distinguished the album from the Beach Boys’ typical fare. Its luxurious sound convey a heartbreaking wistfulness, as songs such as “I Just Wasn’t Made for These Times” and “I’m Waiting for the Day” bid farewell to the innocent world of the early Sixties and to the Beach Boys’ fun-in-the-sun hits. Unfortunately, Capitol Records proved no more enamored of Pet Sounds than had Love; the label actually considered not releasing the album at all. Not yet vindicated by history, Wilson withdrew further into his inner world. “At the last meeting I attended concerning Pet Sounds,” Wilson wrote in his autobiography (which took the name of the album’s opening track, “Wouldn’t It Be Nice”) about his dealings with Capitol’s executive brain trust, “I showed up holding a tape player and eight prerecorded, looped responses, including ‘No comment,’ ‘Can you repeat that?’ ‘No’ and ‘Yes.’ Refusing to utter a word, I played the various tapes when appropriate.” Total album sales: 1.6 million Track List: Mono Mix 01 Wouldn’t It Be Nice Asher, Love, Wilson 2:25 02 You Still Believe in Me Asher, Wilson 2:31 03 That’s Not Me Asher, Wilson 2:28 04 Don’t Talk (Put Your Head on My Shoulder) Asher, Wilson 2:53 05 I’m Waiting for the Day Love, Wilson 3:05 06 Let’s Go Away for Awhile Wilson 2:20 07 Sloop John B Traditional 2:58 08 God Only Knows Asher, Wilson 2:51 09 I Know There’s an Answer Love, Sachen, Wilson 3:10 10 Here Today 11 I Just Wasn’t Made for These Times 12 Pet Sounds 13 Caroline No 14 Hang on to Your Ego [Bonus track] Stereo Mix 15 Wouldn’t It Be Nice [Stereo] 16 You Still Believe in Me [Stereo] 17 That’s Not Me [Stereo] 18 Don’t Talk (Put Your Head on My Shoulder) [Stereo] 19 I’m Waiting for the Day [Stereo] 20 Let’s Go Away for Awhile [Stereo] 21 Sloop John B [Stereo] 22 God Only Knows [Stereo] 23 I Know There’s an Answer [Stereo] 24 Here Today [Stereo] 25 I Just Wasn’t Made for These Times [Stereo] 26 Pet Sounds [Stereo] 27 Caroline No [Stereo] Note: The Tracks here are very rare tracks .Especially the Mono Version.
