Fleet Foxes Shore Makes Excellent Waves, by Steve Stav

This is a lost, post-Pet Sounds, turn-of-the-70s Beach Boys record – sans Mike Love. Almost like a Carl Wilson solo record.

Which is a very good thing.

In fact, Brian Wilson makes a spoken-word appearance on one track! It’s a small sample from a Pet Sounds outtake.
