I have never been more jealous of anyones music collection more in my life.
 
Pet sounds is one the top 5 albums of all time IMO. The real smile would have been a great album(not the one he finished in the 2000's...made it way less psychedelic) the bootleg one. SmileySmile is great when I'm crazy high or tripping on a diet psych like 2c-i.

I feel in love with Pet Sounds after it helped me get through a horrible jwh-081/122/5-meo-dalt panic attack. I found comfort in the chorus of "I Just Wasn't Made for These Times" and from then on its been my go-to album for any and all panic/anxiety attacks.
In a way its become my safe place, if that makes any sense.
 
I have always felt that your avatar(Animal Collective) has brian wilson the 2nd in it..aka Panda Bear :) He is Brian wilson in a different body on a different drug.

Thats why I love them XD
But I think they were both on the same drug... unless Panda Bear isn't dropping acid...
 
I thought panda was more of a 2c/MDMA type of guy :) At least that is what I like to think when I'm tripping face of a 2c and jamming him.

By the way I had never listened to sunflower before....it is very good! Great find for me...listening to it online right now!

Found it while in the depth of an MXE binge (which I'm currently on again...)

Am I the only one who finds the tracks "All I wanna do" on Sunflower significantly similar to "Guys Eyes" from Merriweather Post Pavilion?
 
Yeah now that you mention it. How do you feel about Today? Some of the songs could have been on Pet Sounds if they had cooler lyrics. Same great sound though.

Actually I haven't listened to it yet. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Just downloaded it and am currently listening "Do you want to dance?"
