Ten Years of Harmony

Beach Boys, “Ten Years of Harmony” (Brother, 1981; original recordings 1972-81)
I happen to love the Beach Boys’ much-maligned ‘70s work; mellowing out in the studio with an ample supply of wine coolers and valium was the logical period-specific iteration of their evolving L.A. leisure ethos, and the sparse yet lush chorale-and-treated-instruments tunage often has a vastness and serenity that justifies itself in spades (and contains numerous pockets of serious weirdness).
