Mike LoveWe were just having fun and it developed into something else. Its funny. We were really an accident - but a good accident. And our first record seemed to be enough for us. We sure didnt think wed be recording into the next century. Al JardineThe music on the face of it is very simple. However, musically speaking, a lot of it is quite deep and complex. It was about going to the beach and having a car and the American experience, but a lot of the songs are master works.Carl Wilson Author Biography The Beach Boysmanage to defy decade, genre and form. They cannot be limited to songs about surfing, girls, California, or hot rods. Everything strove to go beyond - perhaps key to the Beach Boys durability; their ability to go further, to keep going until they reached a place that had not previously been reached in rock and pop music. The bands longevity, experimentation and continuation of influence are without equal.One of the most critically acclaimed, commercially successful and influential bands of all time, the band are embedded within the cultural landscape of America and loved throughout the world. The Beach Boys spearheaded numerous genres, helped to legitimise popular music, and have had the most Billboard Top 40 hits from any US band (thirty-seven), and today their music continues to be revisited, reassessed, and reimagined.
