    With Brian Wilson touring Smile, a new recording of that most enticing of lost classics due, a new Wilson solo album out now, and the 40th anniversary of The Beach Boys’ first no. 1 in the US (‘I Get Around’), what better time to read about the best years of America’s greatest group.

    The Beach Boys is the definitive, day-by-day treatment of one of the few bands to have truly changed the face of pop music. With a quarter of a million words and reams of rare pictures, this detailed study from 1961 to 1976 brings together for the first time in one publication a complete guide to The Beach Boys' recording sessions, including blow-by-blow accounts of the legendary Pet Sounds, Smile and Holland recordings.

    Also covered in are over 1,000 concert appearances around the world, including long-lost press reviews, and every Beach Boys television appearance. There are archive interviews with The Beach Boys and those closely associated with the band, some thought lost, along with rare concert and record advertisements and dozens of unseen Beach Boys photographs.
