RARE / sought ((( original mid '70s first pressing ))) after solo LP by Beach Boys drummer DENNIS WILSON, of which brother Brian Wilson stated, is his favorite album.
Includes custom designed inner sleeve ...
Much is made of his older brother Brian's tortured genius, but Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson had his own deeply artistic statement to make--one he made with moody, heartrending beauty and fathomless, soulful introspection on his 1977 masterpiece, Pacific Ocean Blue. Besides being the first solo album by a member of the Beach Boys, Pacific Ocean Blue is a lost classic of '70s West Coast rock, a richly arranged opus that swaths the singer-songwriter's delicate and profoundly personal observations in epic, wide-screen aural delights that easily match the drama of the celluloid blockbusters made in his Hollywood back yard.
Awash in studio strings and layered, breathy melodies, the keyboard-sprinkled balladry of tracks like "Thoughts of You" and "End of the Show" offer glimpses of a more tender, wounded, and never-before-seen side of this most famously free-spirited Beach Boys member; while such ecology-themed meditations as "River Song" (which boasts flashes of hard rock) and the title cut reflect other topics close to the drummer's heart. But despite the album's more serious subject matter, the Beach Boys' good-time poprock is still firmly on deck with the pumping R&B of "What's Wrong" and the sunshine lilt of "Rainbows."
Dennis offered the ultimate statement- hypnotic piano-driven songs, achingly sincere vocals, a different kind of musical experimentation. It makes perfect sense next to such albums of the era as Exile on Main Street, Manassas, On the Beach, Greetings from LA and No Other. Every song is utterly wonderful- this would happilly be many collectors desert island album
No wonder Brian Wilson himself is one of Pacific Ocean Blue's biggest fans.
