Records during the 1960s. '' Down Beat magazine'' said he made "one of the more significant contributors to orchestral jazz".

He wrote some beautiful orchestral settings for great soloists, yet wasn’t immune to commercial forces." Life McFarland was born in Los Angeles, on October 23, 1933, but grew up in Grants Pass, Oregon.

The Beach Boys Today!
''The Beach Boys Today!'' is the eighth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released March 8, 1965 on Capitol Records. It signaled a departure from their previous records with its orchestral sound, intimate subject matter, and abandonment of car or surf songs. Side one features an uptempo sound, while side two consists mostly of introspective ballads. Supported by this thematic approach, the record became an early example of a rock concept album and established the group as album artists rather than just a singles band. It has since become regarded as one of the greatest albums of all time. The album was produced, arranged, and largely written by Brian Wilson with additional lyrics by Mike Love. Most of it was recorded in January 1965 with the aid of over 25 studio musicians shortly after Wilson had suffered a nervous breakdown and stopped touring with his bandmates. Building on the advancements of '' All Summer Long'' (1964), ''Today!'' showcased more refined ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
