The best album of the decade



Dennis Wilson, the only actual surfer among the Beach Boys, the drummer, the one-time friend of Charles Manson, the one who drowned nearly twenty years ago, released an album titled Pacific Ocean Blue in 1977. It has been "lost" from then until its re-release this week. I have read about it being one of the greatest rock albums of all time.

It is.

Buy it. Now.

You're welcome.

So... which decade is this the best album of? The 1970s or the 2000s?

If it's the '70s, then that's some serious stuff it has to live up to.

If it's the '00s, then, even if this isn't cool anymore, I'll have to quote Kip: "Napoleon, like anyone can even know that."

You listen to it and see.

What would it have to beat from the 70s? Boston? James Taylor?

Please...

As for this decade, I will go ahead and wager that since nothing better has come out thus far, nothing better will come out in the next 18 months.
