The legendary rock band the Seashore Boys fashioned in 1961 in Hawthorne, California, with an unique lineup consisting of brothers Brian, Dennis and Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love and buddy Al Jardine. Releasing their first album, the long-lasting Surfin’ Safari, in 1962, the Seashore Boys shortly gained fame for his or her “California Sound,” characterised by intricate vocal harmonies and upbeat songs that celebrated browsing, automobiles and youth tradition. Their debut single, “Surfin’,” together with “Surfin’ Safari” and “409” all cracked the High 100.
Music critics have been underwhelmed, however the public fell in love with the fellas’ healthful, beach-bound seems and summery sounds — even when they have been 1000’s of miles away from surf-able swells, and the closest they’d get to a Woodie was their dad’s wood-paneled Ford Nation Squire wagon.
