Good Vibrations: Brian Wilson’s 70th Birthday Party/Tribute
Brian Wilson, founder/leader/songwriter of The Beach Boys, is heralded as a musical genius along the lines of Lennon–McCartney while The Beach Boys have often been called "America's Band",and Allmusic has stated that "the band's unerring ability... made them America's first, best rock band." The group has had 36 US Top 40 hits (the most by an American rock band) and 56 Hot 100 hits, including four number-one singles. Rolling Stone magazine listed The Beach Boys at number 12 on their 2004 list of the "100 Greatest Artists of All Time," the highest ranking for an American rock band. The group is also one of America's best-selling acts, having sold over 100 million albums worldwide since their debut in 1961. Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988. Pet Sounds, the masterpiece that Brian Wilson created in 1966, is often recognized as among the best albums of all time. Since the '90s, many of the group's later albums and singles have been re-evaluated by critics and fans with albums such as Sunflower, Surf's Up and the finally released Smile albums being seen as worthy successors to their earlier output.
