Pros: Brian Wilson performs his Beach Boys' classics and songs from his solo career. Cons: None.
The Beach Boys scored more than four dozen Hot 100 singles since forming in 1961. Led by primary songwriter and producer Brian Wilson, the band created melodic rock and sweet harmonies that most bands can only dream of.
Last weekend, I had the house to myself, and as I am wont to do under such conditions, I spent most of that time in a state of indecision-induced paralysis. By the time James hops on his plane, my mind is reeling with the possibilities of all the ...
Pros: the lyrics, the overall sound and the memories Cons: the stark contrast to how he use to sound

Pros: The sound of genius at work. Cons: If you hate joyous music you won't like this album.
