summer sounds: beach boys' party!


it just wouldn't be summer without them.
last year i posted about pet sounds, my absolute favorite album of all time, but this year i'm posting about a live recording of the beach boys called "beach boys' party!"

it's pretty self-explanatory.
but it's pretty dang awesome, too.

this record is so upbeat and fun and makes you feel like you're just hanging out in a recording studio with the boys singing songs together, goofing off, and laughing.

so, basically, put this record on, close your eyes, and you're in heaven.

fun fact: the recording of "barbara ann" that we all know and love came from this very album!
so, imagine "barbara ann" times ten and you've got this charming and fun record.

anyway, buy it/check it out from the orem library/borrow it from a friend and let the party of the century begin!

track listing [because they're all my favorite]:
