NowPlaying: Beach Boys Greatest Hits Volume 3: Best of the Brother Years
This is so far past their surf years that it isn't even funny. While some of the songs on this compilation are, well, filler ( see "Susie Cincinnatti" and the enjoyable but irrelevant covers of "Peggy Sue" and "Rock and Roll Music"), some of the most brilliant songs every written ("Surf's Up"--the content is the antithesis of the title's implication--"Sail On, Sailor," "Disney Girls," "Til I Die," "Long Promised Road") are covered on this album, as well.
The last track is "California Dreamin'," which is a song I really dig even though I've never been to California and probably would hate living in L.A.
