This album is unlike anything else I've ever heard before and is quite possibly one of the saddest and most moving albums ever released. As one Youtuber put it:
"its crushingly beautiful ...I'm a huge Beach Boys fan and have always loved Dennis' contributions, especially 'Forever' and 'Baby Blue', which have to be two of the most heratbreaking songs ever written. I didn't hear this album until it's reissue a couple of years back and fell in love with it instantly. It's an album that grows on you more and more with every listen and is packed full with emotion. I really have a tough time putting into words my feelings for music I love, so just take a listen to it yourself. The whole album's up on You Tube:
ive never been to california but i bet pacific ocean blue summarizes the feel of that coast better than the beach boys music ever did.
I can feel the ebb and flow of the tide and the current and the warmth of that powerful pacific when i listen to this album... repetition is used masterfully to emulate the waves of music crashing in these beautiful and tragic songs from Dennis.."
