  • Like I was Surfin again

    Being a surfer back in my youth and of course a HUGH Beach Boys fan--- all my life I had read a lot of books and articles about them. Brian is a Musical Genuius and a real nut case in most other areas. It's funny because I don't like Peter Ames Carlin most of the time. His reviews seem to bring in his Political views some times. Most of them are liberal and aganist everything I beleive in. BUT--- I will give him credit on this book. This is a first class job and a real credit to Peter. I enjoyed this book very much and would recomend it to anyone that loves music or just a interesting life story.

  • The true story of Beach Boys founder Brian Wilson

    A compelling book and a detailed accounting of the history of America's most famous band.

  • Catch a Wave by Peter James Carlin

    I have to note that I am not a Beach Boys fan. I grew up listening to their music. I even know the words to quite a few of their songs. However, before reading this book, I didn't even know the names of the band members or have a clue about any of the band or band member's history. My lack of intimate knowledge and fanaticism probably greatly reduced the enjoyment of this book for me. During the first few chapters of the book, I felt like I had walked in on a conversation part way through. I had no idea about the significance of the song Smile. By the end of the book, I did understand what the author had been talking about but at the time I was completely lost. Catch a Wave: The Rise, Fall & Redemption of the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson is extremely detailed. Fans of The Beach Boys and of ...
