Happy 48th Birthday, Pet Sounds (May 16, 1966)
Nobody was prepared for anything so soulful, so lovely, something one had to think about so much. Each tune has its own singular flavor, one brilliant little touch — the slur of a baritone saxophone or the luxuriant tintinnabulation of Brian’s omnipresent chimes — that puts it apart from the body of the whole record.
