"Let Him Run Wild” (1965)

From their "Endless Summer" album. I’m forever finding great songs I didn’t know about, or hadn’t listened to clearly…

Back in 2003, Rolling Stone Magazine released a list of the 500 greatest rock albums of all time. And their methodology was interesting; they asked what they considered to be distinguished artists what they thought the greatest albums were. You and I, @bijouxbroussard, are similar ages, and the Rolling Stone poll group tended to focus on our music.

Anyway, long story short, Beach Boys Pet Sounds was SECOND among the 500 albums! I always liked the Beach Boys, but I never thought of them as great artists before (disclaimer: I'm musically illiterate, I just know what I like).

Actually, I can't find the original 2003 version; here's the slightly updated 2012 top ten albums
1. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles
2. Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys
3. Revolver - The Beatles
4. Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan
5. Rubber Soul - The Beatles
6. What's Going On - Marvin Gaye
7. Exile on Main St - The Rolling Stones
8. London Calling - The Clash
9. Blonde on Blonde - Bob Dylan
10. The White Album - The Beatles

The Beach Boys were the group the Three Johns and Joan listened to almost exclusively back in the day... but we must've missed this one.

I did a cover of this song in a 24-track studio. Played drums, piano and keyboards, produced, even sang lead and backup. I hate my vocal, but I'll send it to you if you'd like.
@uncalled4 Yes, please 👍🏽
Great song, amazing harmonies
