Surf's Up ... Beach Boys

Feel Flows is a tune off this 1971 album. I figure it is about 40 years old and it's worth a listen. The Beach Boys had their ups and downs in their career but the worst of their music is still interesting. 1971 was a hard time to be in rock. The Who, Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, George Harrison, Jethro Tull, ELO, and Black Sabbath were all producing good music. So what are the Beach Boys doing? Some interesting stuff. Don't be afraid to get your long board out. That weird vocal effect is reverse reverb used in extreme in Poltergeist. Instead of the vocals expanding, they contract slightly.
