The Beach Boys Surprisingly Strange Discography and History: Part 15
Sunflower
We finally reached the 1970s. There’s a lot to say about this one and what was going on with the band around this time so let’s get into it.

Baroque pop at its most poppy and admittedly simple sounding sometimes. However much like the beach boys early 60s albums the sheer amount of positive energy here is infectious.
