Who would have thought that the best Beach Boy solo album would come from Dennis Wilson. The problem with a lot of Beach Boy solo albums is that they try to sound like The Beach Boys. If your going to do that, then save the songs for a Beach Boy album.

“Pacific Ocean Blue” doesn’t sound like a Beach Boy album. Dennis Wilson has a gritty voice. Might be good for singing background on a Beach Boy album but when he takes the lead, it sounds like a Dennis Wilson album.
