The beach boys are one of the greatest rock/pop bands of the
1960’s. The beach boys had a lot of success it there time and they were known
as America’s band. The beach boys formed
in Hawthorne, California in 1961 and the
band member were 3 brothers Brian, Carl, Dennis Wilson and their cousin mike love and there two friends Al Jardine
and David marks. There famous album was released in 1974 and the album was called endless
summer. Some of the songs it this album were all summer long, you’re so good to me, be true to your
school, shut down, and The warmth of the sun. The beach boys have record 36 billboard on the top 40 hits and they have also sold about 100 million sales of their music. The beach boys basally wrote there music about having a free life and being young in the California dream. They showed very fast development in the 1960's kinda like the Beatles. The beach boys were a great band all in all but in great rock bands there is always a dark side to everything with drugs! The main person who did this was one the one and only Brian Wilson. He suffered very bad from this addiction with drugs and it didn't help that he had a mental illness either. It got so bad with the drugs and everything that he withdrawal himself from the band. In the later years Carl and Dennis Wilson died and in 2011 the five group member who were still alive put on a show for everyone for the last time. The biggest accomplishment that the beach boys had is when 1988 when the original beach boys when everyone was in the band got inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame. I really wish music could like it was in this time period because the music right now is awful!
