'The Beach Boys' Christmas Album'
In 1963, Brian Wilson attended sessions for Phil Spector's Christmas Album, A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector. He even played a piano track for the song "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" which Spector later removed. To this day Brian claims it as his favorite album. In December of 1963, The Boys released the perennial Christmas favorite "Little Saint Nick" a yuletide re-write of "Little Deuce Coupe" recorded on October 20th of 1963 at United Western Recorders. In June of 1964 Brian decided to record an entire album of Christmas songs. Opening with the aforementioned St. Nick. The version of "Little St. Nick" on the Christmas album removed the notable sleighbell and glockenspiel overdubs from the 63 version to make the sound consistent with the rest of the album.

Finding Your Voice
There’s something almost otherworldly about standing in a room, opening your mouth, and letting a melody spill out. Singing. Just the thought of it can send shivers down your spine, right? Or maybe make your palms sweat a little. It’s not just about hitting the right notes—it’s about something deeper, something that connects us to the core of who we are.

Out-Bloody-Rageous. Content Warning.
Introduction "Bloody" is the only swear word that I have ever heard my dad use, and I don't swear all that much. For some reason, the Soft Machine title "Out-Bloody-Rageous" started running through my head and could be applied to so many situations today.

'All Summer Long'
With The Beatles dominating the American Charts, The Beach Boys and Brian Wilson in particular faced a tough creative challenge. They would have to make a real good song to compete with the Fab Four. The All Summer Long album came out 4 months after Shut Down Volume 2 on July 13th 1964 and can be considered the high point of the early Beach Boys era. Prior to the recording sessions for the album Murry Wilson was fired as the Beach Boys manager by Brian after his fathers aggressive tone and out of style creative suggestions were impeding on Brian's musical development. The album was recorded at United Western Recorders in Hollywood. Brian had been disappointed in the quality of Shut Down Volume 2 and wanted the album to be of a higher quality. Most of the instrumentation on the album was played by the band. A situation that would become less common as Brian slowly began to feature more members of the legendary "Wrecking Crew" of session musicians on future albums.
