Negative Positive
Title: Definitely Overrated
Review: According to one of the reviews here, Pet Sounds is "most definitely the best album ever recorded by man." This is truly sad. There are, at last count, about 238,481 recordings in the history of music that are more interesting, entertaining and/or influential than Pet Sounds.Don't get me wrong - I like the Beach Boys as much as the next band that plays easy-on-the-ears pop music. The Brian Wilson biography on A&E a few months back was both sweet and sad. But in a musical era & genre where the Beatles, Stones, Dylan and Hendrix were setting the pace, the Beach Boys and Pet Sounds were peripheral candy.
Is the review positive or negative?
