Convince me that a copy of Pet Sounds and the Endless Summer compilation aren't the only Beach Boys content I need.

You are probably never going to listen to that Endless Summer compilation
SMiLE Sessions is better than either
Today! Is a pretty solid album and you're missing out on the material from Sunflower and Surfa Up.
Sunflower is bad and Surfs Up has no more than 3 good tracks (although they're REALLY good). Honestly Pet Sounds and SMiLE are the only albums worth hearing from them.
it's missing Today!, Love You, Surf's Up, Sunflower
smiley smile is the only beach boys album you need
in fact, its the only album you need period
Love You is plain bad and loved by hipsters who think it's quirky and think mental illness is cool
Endless Summer isn't representative if their best pre-Pet Sounds work. You're missing out on some of the most beautiful music they ever recorded, like the entire second side of Today

Other than that, Endless Summer is all you need to have everything covered.
>who think it's quirky and think mental illness is cool
nice projection. it's a unique early synthpop work that has a ton of great melodies. kys if you honestly dislike it
I can't, because the only album that comes close is SMiLE or Surf's Up and Surf's up has 4 good tracks on it, but the rest is pretty mediocre imho. Pet Sounds is p great, SMiLE is better.

Because Endless Summer is a meme because "Be True to Your School" is on it and these songs aren't:

There's only one bad track on Surf's Up, you ponce.

and only three great ones

>Love You is plain bad
What awful taste. Ignore this faggot, OP. Check out:
>Today!
>Love You
>Surf's Up
>Sunflower
>Wildhoney
>Friends
There's actually five but
Endless Summer misses out on a ton of content from their early period, and you're not even touching their '70s material which has some fantastic stuff.
Pet Sounds and Endless Summer are a good starter pack, but that's it. You're cheating yourself by not listening to the Smile Sessions, Today!, and Sunflower at the very least.
SMiLE is on par with Pet Sounds and Today! comes close. All Summer Long, Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!), Wild Honey, Friends, Sunflower, Surf's Up and Love You are also pretty good. Only plebs think Pet Sounds is their only worthwhile studio album.
someone post the chart
Wild Honey and Love You are two of my fave Beach Boys records - you're definitely missing out
