For years I heard that this was a "brilliant" album.The Beach Boys never did much for me,personally,but I saw a copy of "Pet Sounds" for a buck at a flea market and figured I'd give it a listen...after all,I've been wrong about some bands I thought I did not like at one time or another,and everyone said "you have to hear Pet Sounds"-it even got a glorious write up in the "Rolling Stone" top 100 albums issue.Well,I heard it and it stunk.Thank gawd It only cost me $1.00 to find out!
