*”The Beach Boys Love You” is the 21st studio album by american rock band “the beach boys”, released on “11 april 1977″*
.
(originally planned as a ‘brian wilson’ solo outing named Brian Loves You, the album is almost entirely written and performed by ‘wilson’, with the other band members mainly serving as additional lead vocalists)
(penned during a process of mental and drug rehabilitation for ‘wilson’, the album relies heavily on 1970s analog synthesizers, while the lyrics tend to be autobiographic or conversational)
(it was initially received with a sharp divide between fans and critics, peaking at #53 on US record charts)
(one single was issued from the album: “Honkin’ Down the Highway” backed with “Solar System”)
(“Love You” has been recognized as an early work of synth-pop, a forerunner to new wave experiments, and an idiosyncratic and creative oddity in the Beach Boys’ canon)
(after being asked where somebody should begin with the Beach Boys discography, Wilson answered: “Pet Sounds first, then listen to “The Beach Boys Love You”)
(a follow-up album, Adult/Child, was completed by the group, but left unreleased)
.
(‘love you’ would remain the last album written + produced by ‘wilson’ for the next 11 years – his debut solo LP Brian Wilson (1988) marked his comeback)
