Released in 1966 - Pet Sounds would be the 11th studio album recorded by American rock band the Beach Boys. Originally promoted as "the most progressive pop album ever" - Pet Sounds attracted recognition for its ambitious recording and unusually sophisticated music, and is widely considered to be one of the most influential albums in music history. The album was produced and arranged by Brian Wilson, who also wrote and composed almost all of its music. Wilson's goal was to create "the greatest rock album ever made" - a personalized work with no filler tracks. It is sometimes considered a Wilson solo album, repeating the themes and ideas he had introduced with The Beach Boys Today! one year earlier. Pet Sounds contains 16 songs in all (3 of which are bonus tracks). Two of my faves here are - "Wouldn't It Be Nice" and "Sloop John B".
