Description

Presenting all the important people, places, and events related to this great band from the 1960s to the present, this unique look at the Beach Boys is full of interesting personal information, quotes, photographs, and much more dealing with their recordings. The Foreword is by Fred Vail, the first concert promoter to headline the Beach Boys and, later, their tour promoter and manager. This is essential reading for students of popular music and popular culture as this world-famous group has maintained its popularity for nearly four full decades. Fans will love insider information, such as Brian Wilson's feelings and thoughts about where he gets his inspiration and how he actually goes about writing songs.
