I'm offering an ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPHED RARE VINTAGE 8"x 10" BW photo of the California rock band THE BEACH BOYS autographed by BRIAN WILSON, CARL WILSON, AL JARDINE, MIKE LOVE, & BRUCE JOHNSTON. The Beach Boys are an American rock band formed in Hawthorne, California in 1961. The group's original lineup consisted of brothers Brian, Dennis, & Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love, & their friend Al Jardine. Distinguished by their vocal harmonies & early surf songs, they are one of the most influential acts of the rock era. The band drew on the music of jazz-based vocal groups, 1950s rock & roll, & black R&B to create their unique sound, & with Brian as composer, arranger, producer, & de facto leader, they often incorporated classical elements & unconventional recording techniques in innovative ways. The Beach Boys began as a garage band led by Brian & managed by the Wilsons' father Murry. in 1963, the band gained national prominence with a string of top-ten singles reflecting a southern California youth culture of surfing, cars, & romance, dubbed the "California Sound". From 1965, they abandoned beachgoing themes for more personal lyrics & ambitious orchestrations. in 1966, the Pet Sounds album & "Good Vibrations" single raised the group's prestige as rock innovators & established the band as symbols of the nascent counterculture era. After scrapping the album Smile in 1967, Brian's contributions diminished due to his mental health issues. The group's commercial momentum faltered, & despite efforts to maintain an experimental sound, they were dismissed by early rock critics as the archetypal "pop music cop-outs". The core quintet of the three Wilsons, Love, & Jardine was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1988. This signed photograph comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
