Despite being met with largely positive reviews, the album suffered unexpectedly poor sales, reaching number 151 on U.S. record charts during a four-week stay, and becoming the lowest-charting Beach Boys album to that point. In the UK, the album performed better, peaking at number 29.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike their previous albums, <strong>Sunflower<\/strong> was composed entirely of original songwriting contributions from every member of the band. Its sessions began in January 1969, and after some legal battles with Capitol Records, completed in July 1970, by which time the group had signed with Reprise. Over 30 songs were written for the album, and the label rejected numerous revisions of its track listing before the band presented enough formidable material deemed satisfactory for release. It was preceded by the similarly unsuccessful singles &#8220;Add Some Music to Your Day&#8221;and &#8220;Slip On Through&#8221;; later followed up with &#8220;Tears in the Morning&#8221;and &#8220;Forever&#8221;. Only &#8220;Add Some Music&#8221;charted in the US, peaking at number 64.<\/p>\n<p>In later years, <strong>Sunflower<\/strong> was voted number 380 in Rolling Stone&#8217;s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time (2003), number 66 in The Guardian&#8217;s &#8220;100 Best Albums Ever&#8221;(1997), and number 449 in Colin Larkin&#8217;s All Time Top 1000 Albums (2000). The track &#8220;All I Wanna Do&#8221;has been retrospectively cited as one of the earliest manifestations of chillwave, a microgenre that developed in the 2000s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunflower is the 16th studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on August 31, 1970, and their first on Reprise Records.
