Today in 1988, Brian released the single “Love and Mercy,” which was the opening track from his album, Brian Wilson. Brian stated that he “was in my piano room, playing ‘What The World Needs Now is Love,’ and I just went into my own song … worked very hard to get out what was in my heart on that one.” The single was backed by Brian’s collaboration with Lindsey Buckingham, “He Couldn’t Get His Poor Old Body to Move.” #1988 #loveandmercy #brianwilson

Today in 1968, The Beach Boys released Friends, their 14th studio album. The album is characterized by its calm and peaceful atmosphere, which contrasted the prevailing music trends of the time. Friends was recorded primarily at Brian’s Bel Air home with a lo-fi production style. Brian has at times called it his favorite Beach Boys album. What’s your favorite track? #1968 @thebeachboys #friends #calm #peaceful #lowfi
