The title track on this, the second Beach Boys album, was the first big hit for the Boys and the album won Gold Record status as a result!
Originally issued in 1963 on Capitol, whereas this particular LP was the reissue with the Gold Record Award on the cover, but still in beautiful high fidelity, not the inferior stereo sound!
Condition The vinyl is super clean and glossy with hardly a scuff mark, but the cover has a sticker pull on front at the top RH corner along with a hole punch, and minor ring wear. Back cover nice and clean though.
Comment Cover photo by the legendary John Severson (Surfer) is from a 1960
Sunset session and was originally intended as a cover shot for his
magazine. Also interesting is the fact that there are
five instrumental tracks on this album! Surf trivia at its best from
the team at Von Weirdos.
