The Beach Boys genre: Rock
release date 1966-01-01 publisher: Capitol
Pet Sounds is the eleventh studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on May 16, 1966, by Capitol Records. It was produced, arranged, and primarily composed by Brian Wilson with guest lyricist Tony Asher. Recorded largely between January and April 1966, it furthered the orchestral sound introduced in The Beach Boys Today! (1965). Initially promoted as "the most progressive pop album ever", Pet Sounds is recognized for its ambitious production, sophisticated harmonic structures, and coming of age themes. It is widely regarded as among the greatest and most influential albums in music history. Wilson viewed Pet Sounds as a solo album and attributed its inspiration partly to marijuana use and an LSD–rooted spiritual awakening. Galvanized by the work of his rivals, he aimed to create "the greatest rock album ever made", surpassing the Beatles' Rubber Soul and extending Phil Spector's Wall of Sound innovations. His orchestrations blended pop, jazz, exotica, classical, and avant-garde elements, combining rock instrumentation with layered vocal harmonies, found sounds, and instruments not normally associated with rock, such as French horn, flutes, Electro-Theremin, bass harmonica, bicycle bells, and string ensembles. Featuring the most complex and challenging instrumental and vocal parts of any Beach Boys album, it was their first in which studio musicians, such as the Wrecking Crew, largely replaced the band on their instruments, and the first time any group had departed from their usual small-ensemble pop/rock band format to create a full-length album that could not be replicated live.

Highway 61 Revisited
Douban
release date 1992-04-30 publisher: Dcc Compact Classics
Highway 61 Revisited is a landmark -- recorded in 1965, during the same tumultuous summer that had seen him plugging in his electric guitar at the Newport Folk Festival, Highway 61 Revisited is Bob Dylan diving head-first into the rock and roll maelstrom, backed by the studio prowess of Al Kooper, Michael Bloomfield and others on such devastating classics as the epochal "Like A Rolling Stone." This Sundazed edition is an exact reproduction of the rare original 1965 mono album, featuring the original sleeve-notes and photos, and all-analog mastering from the absolute original source tapes.

The Sonics genre: Rock
release date 1999-06-01 publisher: Norton Records
这是The Sonics不是Sonic Youth(音速青年)。但是个人以为The Sonics的成就和名气绝对不 应该比Sonic Youth低。相信很多人一定听过那首“Ha ha ha ha,Yeahh-ah-oh,Cubba cubba cubba ”打头的《Don't you just know it》。很奇怪The Sonics居然没有任何中文资料。俺自己来山寨一 个介绍。 The Sonics是来自于美国华盛顿的经典车库摇滚乐队,活跃于1960年至1968年。他们的声音比 同时代的其他乐队明显更粗放、更不加修饰。某种意义上来说The Sonics可以被认为是史上第 一支朋克摇滚乐团,虽然朋克运动早在1970年就开始了。尽管他们具备一支当时的标准乐器配 备,但是The Sonics不甘于平庸,创造了他们独特狂野的声音,在歌曲中他们总是重新编排歌 词、尖叫咆哮、用扩音器把电吉他的声音搞到非常粗糙。可以说他们的成功得益于当时Gibson 的第一台电吉他模糊音装置(Fuzz box)的出世,但The Sonics的独特嗓音却是他们自己最伟 大的创造。(原文 )

Bob Dylan genre: Folk
release date 1990-10-25 publisher: Sony
Bob Dyla的影响力主要体现在60年代,如果没有迪伦,无疑摇滚乐将走一段弯路,将不会有“披头士”(BGEATLES,THE)的《佩珀军士》(Sgt.Pepper),不会有“滚石”的《乞丐的宴会》(Beggar’s Banquet),也不会有“乐队”的《来自大平克的音乐》(Music form Big Pink),这就是他的影响程度。他对音乐的最主要的贡献,这点也影响了列农和麦卡特尼之后的很多歌手,那就是歌词的深刻寓意与音乐成为同等重要的一部分,从他一开始的抗议歌曲,就展示了他的歌词比他的音乐更浪漫、更激动人心。他对工业国家整个一代人的敏感性的形成起了很大的作用,他的音乐对理解和分析60年代是至关重要的。
