The sixth Beach Boys album, and for many casual fans the definitive one, 1964's All Summer Long is the peak product of their 'fun-in-the-sun' years, and still the album from which Mike Love's touring 'Beach Boys' take more of their repertoire than any other.
It shows how fast the band changed, and how much, that Don't Back Down, the only surfing song on this album, is also the last song they did on the subject (other than Do It Again on the 20/20 album) until 1978's MIU Album.
