Awesome, awesome album. Compare and contrast with "smiley smile" too.

Kekeke! Seriously I hate this new Smile. Still a great album though, it always was.
Brem- Get ''Surf's Up'', it has maybe my favorite Beach Boys song on it, Disney Girls. And one of the sweetest album covers ever.

He loves his mum and so the album has an additional sentimental attachment for him...that's a nice thing.

that's part of it, but I think it's moreso that his mum comes from a more traditional classical background, being a classical pianist and piano-teacher.

I'm going to guess that his mum's whole family was murdered on a Beach by some Boys, and this gift symbolises her finally letting go and moving on.

it just sounds like the beach boys to me,
so much for 'too progressive to be released at the time'
perhaps brian wilson went to the same school of markketing and releasing as BoC.
anyway, the albums ok, but i don't think it's amaaaazing.
37 years for that. what a disappointment.
someone had to say it.

I think it was more that brian wilson was under the influence of too many drugs and too much paranoid perfectionism. Not a cheap marketing ploy.

why is good vibrations on there? it's exactly the same as the old one.
what is so special about them anyway? their song's are kinda silly.

plus the other beach boys didn't like what Brian Wilson was writing... or the methods he was using to make the music (e.g. dressing up as firemen)

smile was an original album, that Brian Wilson never finished - due to acid induced paranoia (basically). Demos and rough versions of tracks were released on smiley smile, wild honey and friends - i think. Good Vibrations was one of the only songs that they completely finished.

their songs are structured very well and the layering of instruments and voices is near perfect.
and now and then something weird happens in the music - god is in the details.
production is slick as hell, but it fits with their/his music.

I don't feel it was ahead of it's time, the beauty of it to me is that a mindblowing 60's album was released in 2004. The production is fucking fantastic, it sounds like the Beach Boys album that was never made; that is more than I could have asked for.
