Sometimes it makes sense to listen to the drummer's album. Dennis Wilson. Beach Boys heart throb Friend of laughing Charlie Manson. Almost a character out of the Big Lebowski. The Dude's Surfer Cousin.
Pacific Ocean Blue is some record. Before Dennis took his fateful late night swim and sank to the ocean bed. A fitting way for the man to go. This is a companion piece to the great Beach Boy records. It might as well be a Beach Boy record.
They had fun, fun, fun, and then it wasn't so much fun anymore. The beer and drugs settled in their bellies. It became heavier, and wistful. But the sun kept coming up. And the waves kept rolling in. Lapping against the boats prow.
