Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Astonishing
Some perspective on my review: I am 52 years old. I enjoy the old Beach Boys music, but I'n not a fanatic. I don't swoon over Pet Sounds. So, I approached this with modest expectations. I have about 43 bajillion tunes on my PC, and I never have enough time to listen to them all. But I find myself playing this one over and over and over and over again. First, and most simply, it makes me happy. It is bouncy, catchy, well-crafted, fun music. It touches me, too. I know that Brian had a lot of ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A Spotty Sun
I am a great fan of Brian's and was thrilled with his return in the music world. I think he did an exemplary job on Smile and his other live recordings. I am not sure this work really holds up to any of his greats. There is no killer song, no knock-out punch, and ultimately no excitement. I am sorry to say this because I respect this man so much - and I truly love his music. I cannot say in all honesty that this holds up to his peak work. It is interesting - but I will not be playing this that ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - STILL FEELING THOSE GOOD VIBRATIONS
MORE POP SOUNDING THAN "SMILE", THIS IS WHAT THE BEACH BOYS WOULD SOUND LIKE IF THEY WERE STILL MAKING NEW MUSIC AND ALBUMS WITH BRIAN WILSON TODAY. IF TOP 40 RADIO WAS STILL AROUND, THIS ALBUM WOULD HAVE SEVERAL ENTRIES INTO THE GENRE. THESE SONGS COULD HAVE BEEN WRITTEN AND RECORDED FORTY YEARS AGO. NO NEW GROUND BROKEN HERE, BUT IT STILL SOUNDS GREAT. COULD HAVE LIVED WITHOUT THE NARRATIVES, THO'.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Pleasant
Let's face it, at age 60-something, Brian Wilson isn't going to break any new musical ground at this point. And he doesn't with his new CD "That Lucky Old Sun". But it's still an enjoyable CD filled with feel-good latter-day Beach Boys music. And there's nothing wrong with that. His voice is in fine form (better than his most recent CDs), his readings are energetic, and the arrangements & playing are typically top-notch. So if you're in the mood for a pleasant, upbeat, almost instantly-forgettable ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hats off to Brian
Kudos to Brian Wilson for a terrific follow-up to Smile. It isn't as good as Smile but it wasn't 30+ years in the making with classic songs like Good Vibrations, Heroes and Villians, Surfs Up that just can't be topped by anyone.

That being said, I think it is more ambitious than anything any of his contemporaries are doing these days (I do love Ray Davies Workingman's Cafe). There is so much boring music on the radio these days and at the core of so much of it is simply boring songs that all ... Read More
