All Music Guide profile

"Just five years ago, scared, it's said, that the New Breed, the San Francisco hippy crowd, might laugh, Brian Wilson pulled the Beach Boys out of the Monterey Pop Festival, right at the last minute. 1967, Janis and Jimi, Eric Burdon even, Ravi Shankar ... high harmony in duck pants, buck shoes and competition kandy-stripe T-shirts - what was it they'd call them, crown princes of whimp-rock? - it wouldn't go, Brian thought."
