(1965)"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><strong>The Beach Boys Today!<\/strong> is the eighth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on March 8, 1965. The album signaled a departure from their previous records with its orchestral approach, intimate subject matter, and abandonment of themes related to surfing, cars, or superficial love. It peaked at number four on US record charts during a 50-week chart stay and was preceded by the top 10 singles &#8220;When I Grow Up (To Be a Man)&#8221;and &#8220;Dance, Dance, Dance&#8221;, along with &#8220;Do You Wanna Dance?&#8221;which reached number 12. When issued in the UK one year later, Today! peaked at number six.<\/p>\n<p>The album was produced, arranged, and largely written by Brian Wilson with additional lyrics by Mike Love. Shortly before recording began, the group completed their album All Summer Long (1964), intended to be their final statement on beach-themed music. In December 1964, Brian Wilson had a nervous breakdown while on a flight, and resigned from touring with the group to focus solely on writing and producing. He began using marijuana, which he later said had profound effects on his musical conceptions.<\/p>\n<p>Today! established the Beach Boys as album artists rather than just a singles band. Side one features an uptempo sound that contrasts side two, which consists mostly of ballads. Author Scott Schinder referred to its &#8220;suite-like structure&#8221;as an early example of the rock album format being used to make a cohesive artistic statement. In 2012, the album was voted 271 on Rolling Stone magazine&#8217;s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. In 2005, it was included in the musical reference book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Beach Boys Today! is the eighth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on March 8, 1965.
