| The Beach Boys main line-up consisted of Brian Wilson, Carl Wilson, Dennis Wilson, Mike Love and Al Jardine with, at various times, Dave Marks, Bruce Johnston (earlier of Bruce And Terry), Glen Campbell, Ricky Fataar (later of The Rutles)and Blondie Chaplin.
The main fallacy in what is up here so far is the idea that Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys are interchangeable. While Brian was responsible for a lot of the best work, like Pet Sounds and Smile, much of the early 70s material with Carl and Dennis at the helm is truly excellent too - and Carl Wilson had one of the all time great rock & roll voices.
Of course Mike Love's touring 'Beach Boys' (Love with Johnston and a few mates) is an utter sham, but check out Surf's Up, The Beach Boys Love You, Carl & The Passions (So Tough) or Brian and Dennis' solo albums to hear some great overlooked music...

David Marks, Blondie Chaplin and Ricky Fataar are not included because they were not in the band for long enough periods, and appearances on other people's albums, and side-projects like Mike Love's Celebration, or The Legendary Masked Surfers are not counted unless noted.

Also the compilations Endless Harmony and Hawthorne, Ca are largely composed of otherwise unreleased material. A good overview of the band's career is provided by the box set Good Vibrations: 30 Years Of the Beach Boys and the box set The Pet Sounds Sessions contains much material that is unavailable elsewhere. More information about line-up changes and so on can be found at the nodes for individual albums, which detail their making. |
