Which Beach Boys LP after Pet Sounds

I have all original pressings of the Beach Boy albums and my most played is Surfer Girl.

Not only is this the first album that Brian fully produced but the sonics (at least my copy) are simply astonishing and the best of any Beach Boys album.

YMMV

It's also the last cover showing David Marks who was replaced by Al Jardine before the album was released.

Holy responses.I found Sunflower kind of interesting as well. I was going to order it on the new vinyl series through AS or MD. Not sure about the sound quality on these though. My local record emporium was (even though normally fairly stocked) hurting in their Beach Boys section. Thanks a bunch, and keep them coming in.

Go ahead and get the "Today" album. It's the album they made right before "Pet Sounds". Next to "Pet Sounds" it's my favorite Beach Boys album.

Hopefully, I can get some feedback on how the new remastered LP's sound, and start there. It certainly seems like the BB's catalog is deep enough to explore it further. The price on the BB's Lp's are not bad at around $18, but only if they sound good. Cheers !

Today is a great record too. It contains the original version of Help Me Rhonda with Brian singing the lead. The 45 featured a more rocking arrangement with Al Jardine taking the lead vocal. The live 2 disc set, The Beach Boys In Concert is a great document as well. They could dazzle a crowd with that singing, while the rough and tumble arrangements showed their rock chops...Good Vibrations in concert was just one example of a band that truly among the most unique of their time...embrassing their roots, while bravely changing with the times...pure magic.
