ON THIS DATE (59 YEARS AGO) March 25, 1963 – The Beach Boys: Surfin' USA is released. ----------------

Notes found on FaceBook:

Surfin' USA is the second album released by The Beach Boys, released on March 25, 1963. It reached #2 on the Billboard 200 Top LP's chart during its 78-week stay. The title track, "Surfin' USA", became The Beach Boys' first big hit in the US, peaking at #2. It is part of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll list.

Surfin' USA is notable for giving The Beach Boys their first widespread success with its title track and for Brian Wilson's increasing prowess in songwriting, as well as vocal arrangement. The fuller-sounding vocals were achieved using double-tracking, creating The Beach Boys' own unique sound. As with Surfin' Safari, some have speculated that it was not Nick Venet, the officially-listed producer, but rather Brian, who produced Surfin' USA. The title track, "Surfin' USA", credited as composed by Brian Wilson, was an almost note-for-note cover of Chuck Berry's "Sweet Little Sixteen". A lawsuit officially granted Berry writing credit and royalties from the record. Additionally, the lyrics seem inspired by the Bobby Rydell 1959 hit "Kissin' Time" (mentions various cities across the USA), which melodically also borrows liberally from Berry's "Sweet Little Sixteen." __________

ORIGINAL LINER NOTES

Surf’s up! HERE COME THE BEACH BOYS NO. 1 SURFIN’ GROUP IN THE COUNTRY!

Here’s the group that started the surf-dancing craze all over the country – even in places where the nearest thing to surf is maybe the froth on a chocolate shake!

The Beach Boys, a brawny, sun-tanned five-some, have been riding the crest of success since their song Surfin’ became an overnight rage. Their first Capitol album “SURFIN’ SAFARI” (see below) made them nationwide symbols for the exhilarating sport that has taken America by storm. And here they are again with another “good set of heavies”* – twelve more rockin’, sweet rollin’ tunes just right for surf-dancing, singing along, or listening, wet or dry.

The Beach Boys include the Wilson brothers, Brian, Dennis and Carl, of Hawthorne, California; their cousin Mike Love; and a neighbor, the youngest member of the group, David Marks, 14. Brian is the leader and writes most of the songs. Mike Love is the fine lead singer. Carl is lead guitarist. Dennis sings and plays drums, and young David is no gremlin** – he plays the “toes-on-the-nose”+ rhythm guitar!

Those not familiar with the wet variety of surfin’ might like to know that: * A “good set of heavies” is a run of really big waves…the best kind for high-speed riding, and ** a “gremlin” is a beginning surfer. + “Toes-on-the-nose” means riding way up front, standing with the toes right on the nose of the board for maximum speed and thrills. __________

BRIAN WILSON: By the time I got to the album, SURFIN’ USA, I was more experienced at producing. The album SURFIN’ SAFARI was practice for me. The title song was “Surfin’ USA.” “Farmer’s Daughter” was my first chance to fully prove I had a good falsetto voice. I had a lot of different ways of singing throughout my career. My voice doesn’t seem to have any limits. I don’t have a macho kind of sound in my throat, but I’m proud of my sound. Carl, by now, was gettin’ good as an instrumentalist. “Miserlou” and “Stoked” were evidence of this. This album was also versatile and had a little something for everyone. “Noble Surfer” was evidence that my vocal arrangements for The Beach Boys were a unique style. This album showcased our voices. We were just kids, but we were serious about our craft. The point being that when you are given the chance, you do your best. It’s another way of sayin’ “Thanks” to the fans who buy the records. I and the boys were beginnin’ to feel real spirit singing around the microphones. I think that I was a good coach for the boys. I didn’t like second-rate vocals. It was either the best or nothin’, in my opinion. The boys picked up. We had a good understanding between us and I was their leader. We got it done relatively fast in the studio. Like most groups, goin’ flat or sharp was usually the problem. Also, singin’ the wrong words and keeping the harmony were other problems. On this album, we had gotten into a fast pace: almost athletic in nature. It was because “Surfin’ USA” was such a smash hit on the radio. It was the big time for us. “Shut Down” was another sporty kind of record, all about how this guy’s gonna shut another guy down at racin’ their cars. People liked the competitive lyrics. We were born and raised around Los Angeles, a major city where I had access to a lot of the current word jargon…and I used it in my lyrics. Production-wise, this album was an early Brian Wilson production. I sang “Lonely Sea” from my heart and it was all about a swimming pool called the ocean. The Beach Boys have always used the ocean behind them as a mood for their public image. Enjoy! ~ Brian Wilson - Los Angeles, March 1990 __________

COVER

The photograph that adorns the front sleeve was taken by artist/photographer/surfer John Severson during January 1960, showing California-based waverider Leslie Williams riding the winter swell at Sunset Beach (Oahu) in Hawaii. Intended for the front cover of Severson's legendary Surfer magazine, the original negative was damaged during the color separation process and couldn't appear in print. When Capitol Records requested a suitable photograph for the new Beach Boys album Severson fixed the damaged image and sold it to them.

Honestly. Most underrated audio gag is when someone is like. Asking where someone is, asking where they're being sent, shit like that. And then a song with the name of the state is in the song.

#rae rants #like. 'where are they?' (sweet home alabama starts playing) #or 'where are we going?' (florida. so kokomo plays cuz 'off the florida keys') #personally. i prefer surfin usa over california girls for california. bc im thinkin of like a somewhat dramatic scene and then the audio is #the punchline. but it shouldn't be too long ya know? and california girls has a surprisingly slow tempo. so the joke takes too long to hit. #some obvious songs actually plainly would not work bc they're a tad too slow. like west virginia is obvious. but it takes too long to get to #the iconic part. sweet home alabama and surfin and kokomo have immediately recognizable openings. #basically. you want the viewer in on the joke. you shouldn't have to explain the joke ya know? #and if u have to skip to the chorus then you're explaining the joke. ya know?
