Album Notes & Community Reviews

Securing The Beach Boys' first-ever number-one hit in the United States, 'I Get Around' demonstrated Brian Wilson's rapidly accelerating prowess as an elite studio producer. The A-side features aggressive vocal panning and complex a cappella harmonic shifts that transcended typical surf-rock conventions. The stunning B-side, 'Don't Worry Baby', served as Wilson's heartfelt, symphonic homage to Phil Spector's 'Be My Baby'.
