* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]] -: The ''Smile'' sessions [http://www.billboard.com/news/beach-boys-lost-smile-album-to-see-release-1005070202.story are finally coming out!]
* [[Archive Panic]] -: ''Twenty-seven'' studio albums (nineteen if you don't count ''15 Big Ones''-onward), a massive supply of unreleased songs and outtakes, hours of studio sessions, a frankly absurd amount of ''Smile'' material (absurd given that the album was never finished), and an endless deluge of illuminating footage of concerts, interviews, promos, and other assorted segments. And people keep discovering new stuff all the time.
* [[Awesome Music]]:
** ''Pet Sounds'' and ''Smile''
Line 55:
** The fact that Brian Wilson once owned a health food store called The Radiant Radish.
** The fact that country music star Glen Campbell started off playing session guitar for their records, as well as briefly taking Brian's place on tour.
** The fact that [[The Beatles|Paul McCartney]] himself walked in on a ''Smile'' session and contributed the sound of him chomping on celery.
** The fact that Dennis Wilson co-wrote the song "You Are So Beautiful" at a party with Billy Preston, but never took credit for it.
* [[Rescued from the Scrappy Heap]] - Mike Love and Al Jardine came ''so close'' to this on ''Holland''; Mike penned "Big Sur", and Al penned "The Beaks of Eagles" and "California". All three of these songs are sublimely beautiful, melancholy, and poetic, but the two never wrote anything like them since.
