“Capitol Records’ Karl Engemann, who was a lovely man and a great guy, was an A&R guy, when Brian and I went to present Pet Sounds,” Love recalled to me in a 2011 interview. It was the Beach Boys’ Mike Love who supplied the name Pet Sounds to the Wilson-produced endeavor. “I love performing this album with my band and look forward to playing it for fans all across the world.” “It’s really been a trip to sit here and think about releasing Pet Sounds 50 years ago,” says Wilson. A vast departure from the bands’ then commercial sound, the resulting “concept album” Pet Sounds achieved great critical success helping usher in a new musical landscape and hit the Top 10 in the US while topping the charts in the UK.
Inspired by the Beatles’ Rubber Soul, he challenged himself to create an immaculate musical masterpiece. In 1965, with the Beach Boys out on tour, Wilson began session work on some of the most deeply personal recordings of his career. Fans can expect a live performance of Pet Sounds in its entirety, as well as top hits and fan favorites spanning his 54-year career with The Beach Boys and as a solo artist.
