KoKoMo Brian Wilson wrote one other #1 song, Surf City, recorded by Jan & Dean.
The Beach Boys first album is called Surfin' Safari released on Capitol Records in 1962.
The Beach Boys had an unsurpassed sense of harmony. They could do the existing style of rock, or doo-wop, but they also made brilliant innovations, and expanded the possibilities of what rock could be.
It would have been either 1974 or 1975, and I want to say August.
The only true surfer in the band, the member from whom the concept of recording surf music was derived, was Dennis Wilson, the middle Wilson brother. While Brian had had a go at the sport in his youth, he never fully caught the bug in the same way as his younger brother.
Yes. Most rock groups, especially in the 60's and 70's, used drugs. Brian Wilson said they enhanced his creativity, but has also said they damaged his psyche. Many people blame drugs for Wilson's and the Beach Boys' decline, but the reality is that Wilson also suffered from mental problems unrelated to drugs, and that fact, combined with drugs, made him withdraw from the band for years. On the other hand, Beach Boys Al Jardine and Mike Love were against drugs and advocated Transcendental Meditation and a healthy lifestyle. However their musical contributions to the band were nowhere near what Wilson was doing.
Either way, the Beach Boys made some great albums back then! One of my favorites is Sunflower, from 1970.
The only event worth any major note in 1981 was their participation in the Fourth of July concert in the Nation Mall.

You would need to ask Brian. He may welcome the opportunity to talk about his faith if you approach him honestly and with an open mind.
Heck, you might even learn a thing or three.
Brian Wilson
After Brian stopped touring with the group, Carl Wilson took over Brian's falsetto parts on vocals. Carl had almost the same high range as his older brother.
Brians falsetto is now being sung by jeffrey foskett.. the band member always beside brian wilson and behind mike love. he has the highest voice in the group
The Beach Boys were known as the Pendletons
Their first release was "SURFIN" back in October 3 1961.
According to Wikipedia, the Bee Gees have recorded 26 albums, not including compilations. Check it out via the Related Link.
I Get Around was The Beach Boys' first number-one hit song in the United States. The single also charted at number seven in the United Kingdom, which was the band's first top ten single there. The song's first album release was on All Summer Long in 1964.
The Beach Boys appeared in the Season 6 episode "The Karate Kid Returns" as Wilson's cousins. (Then-Beach Boys Carl Wilson and Mike Love were real-life cousins.)
The group initially comprised singer-musician-composer Brian Wilson, his brothers, Carl and Dennis, their cousin Mike Love, and friend Al Jardine. This core quintet, along with early member David Marks and later bandmate Bruce Johnston, were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Class of 1988.
THE LONG ANSWER:
Brian Wilson was born in Hawthorne, California in 1942. At the age of sixteen, Brian shared a bedroom with his two brothers, Dennis and Carl. He watched his father, Murry Wilson, play piano and listened intently to the harmonies of vocal groups like The Four Freshmen. One night he taught his brothers a song called "Ivory Tower" and how to sing the background harmonies. "We practiced night after night, singing softly, hoping we wouldn't wake our Dad." [7] For his sixteenth birthday, Brian had received a reel-to-reel tape recorder. He learned how to overdub, using his vocals and those of Carl and his mother. He would play piano and later added Carl playing the Rickenbacker guitar he got as a Christmas present.[8] Soon Brian was avidly listening to Johnny Otis on his KFOX radio show, a favorite station of Carl's. Inspired by the simple structure and vocals of the rhythm and blues songs he heard, he changed his piano-playing style and started writing songs. His enthusiasm interfered with his music studies at school. He failed to complete a twelfth-grade piano sonata, but did submit an original composition, called "Surfin'".[9] Family gatherings brought the Wilsons in contact with cousin Mike Love. Brian taught Love's sister Maureen and a friend harmonies. Later, Brian, Mike and two friends performed at Hawthorne High School (Hawthorne, California), drawing tremendous applause for their version of The Olympics' (doo-wop group) "Hully Gully".[10] Brian also knew Al Jardine, a high school classmate, who had already played guitar in a folk group called The Islanders. One day, on the spur of the moment, they asked a couple of football players in the school training room to learn harmony parts, but it wasn't a success - the bass singer was flat.[11] Brian suggested to Jardine that they team up with his cousin and brother Carl. It was at these sessions, held in Brian's bedroom, that "the Beach Boys sound" began to form. Brian says: "Everyone contributed something. Carl kept us hip to the latest tunes, Al taught us his repertoire of folk songs, and Dennis, though he didn't [at the time] play anything, added a combustible spark just by his presence." It was Love who encouraged Brian to write songs and he also gave the fledgling band its first name: The Pendletones. The Pendletones name was derived from the Pendleton woolen shirts popular at that time. In their earliest performances, the band wore the heavy wool jacket-like shirts, which were favored by surfers in the South Bay. In 1962, the Beach Boys began wearing blue/gray-striped button-down shirts tucked into white pants as their touring "uniforms." This was the band's signature look through to 1966.[12] Although surfing motifs were very prominent in their early songs, Dennis was the only member of the group who surfed. He suggested that his brothers compose some songs celebrating his hobby and the lifestyle which had developed around it in Southern California.[13] Jardine and a singer friend, Gary Winfrey, went to Brian's to see if he could help out with a version of a folk song they wanted to record - "Sloop John B." In Brian's absence, the two spoke with his father, Murry, who was a music industry veteran of modest success. In September 1961, Murry arranged for The Pendletones to meet publishers Hite and Dorinda Morgan at Stereo Masters in Hollywood.[14] The group performed a straightforward rendition of "Sloop John B.", but failed to impress the Morgans. After an awkward pause, Dennis mentioned they had an original song, called "Surfin'". Brian was taken aback - he had not finished writing the song - but Hite Morgan was interested and asked them to call back when the song was complete.[13] With help from Mike, Brian finished the song and the group rented guitars, drums, amplifiers and microphones. They practiced for three days while the Wilsons' parents were on a short vacation. A few days later they auditioned for the Morgans again and Hite Morgan declared: "That's a smash!"[15] On October 3, 1961, The Pendletones recorded twelve takes of "Surfin'" in the Morgans' cramped offices (Dennis was deemed not yet good enough to play drums, much to his chagrin). A small quantity of singles was pressed. When the boys eagerly unpacked the first box of singles, on the Candix Records label, they were surprised and angered to see their band name had been changed to "Beach Boys". Murry Wilson, now intimately involved with the band's fortunes, called the Morgans. Apparently a young promotion worker, Russ Regan, had decided on the change to more obviously tie the group in with other surf bands of the time (his original name for the band was The Surfers). The limited budget meant the labels could not be reprinted.[16] Released mid-November, 1961, "Surfin'" was soon aired on KFWB and KDAY, two of Los Angeles' most influential radio stations. It was a hit on the West Coast, and peaked at #75 on the national pop charts. (it's all from wikipedia)
