Beach Boys, theUS pop group. Known for their vocal-harmony surf music, their first hit was ‘Surfin' USA’ (1963); this was followed by ‘I Get Around’ (1964), and ‘California Girls’ (1965). Their albums include the complex and influential Pet Sounds (1966). The band was formed in Los Angeles in 1961 by the brothers Brian, Carl, and Dennis Wilson. Initially their output consisted of straightforward pop music, but the compositions, arrangements, and production by Brian Wilson became increasingly inventive under the influence of psychedelic rock, particularly in the single ‘Good Vibrations’ (1966).

The list includes The Beach Boys, The Doobie Brothers, Jeffrey Osborne, CeCe Peniston, Sophia Loren, Jackie Chan, Jack Mack and the Heart Attack and a host of Nite Club bands. With an enduring group such as the Beach Boys, the difference between a quarter and 50 cents adds up to millions of dollars very quickly. |
