The Beach Boys: Pet Sounds

First to recommend

Description

Definitely not The Beach Boys top-selling album. However, it is continually considered one of the most influential albums ever made. It's said to be the major influence for "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band" and repeatedly sited as one of Elton John, Eric Clapton and many others favorite albums. Me, I simply think it's the single best album to listen to in the summer!

Pacific Ocean Blue - Legacy Edition: Dennis Wilson

In the only solo project Dennis Wilson ever got around to doing, Pacific Ocean Blue is certainly one of the best beach/summer albums ever made.

The Soft Bulletin

Description

Loving Yoshimi so much, sometimes I end up underplaying this album. However, nothing but pure respect goes out to this 99 release. Why? because it is what first got me into The Lips and has my favorite song of theirs, " A Spoonful Weighs a Ton." The Soft Bulletin is happy and fun and everything I want in a record.

Belle and Sebastian: The Life Pursuit

First to recommend

Description

Accurately titled, this album feels like you're truly pursuing life. Yeah, almost all stuff by Belle & Sebastian is upbeat and positive. However, this one sings even louder.

Weezer - The Blue Album

Description

This is and will always be one of my favorite albums of all times. Rivers Cuomo is always a superstar, but here he shines like he hasn't done since. This really is an all time classic album.

Otis Blue: Otis Redding Sings Soul

First to recommend

Description

The, the third album from Otis Redding, to me, isn't just the most iconic it's one of the best damn albums I've ever heard. Smooth, easy -- classic Otis Redding.

'Sublime' Sublime

3 people recommended this item

Description

It might be 12-years-old and by a band that died (well, the lead singer did) before they even got their start. However, I can still listen to this album everyday and I don't think it'd be a stretch to imagine that almost anyone can sing-a-long to most of this album. This is a staple of the 90s.
