The Beach Boys

In the lead-up to their live recording at TropWorld Casino in Atlantic City on November 30, 1995, The Beach Boys had just released 'Stars and Stripes Vol. 1' a year earlier in 1996. This album was quite a departure from their classic sound, featuring collaborations with various country artists, blending their iconic harmonies with a fresh, cross-genre approach. What’s fascinating is that this was a period where the band was undergoing a resurgence in popularity, thanks in part to their enduring legacy and the nostalgia they evoked. Performing 'Surfin' Safari' in this live set reflected their roots while showcasing their adaptability. As they took the stage in Atlantic City, the energy was palpable, proving once again that the Boys still had it, filling the venue with a sense of beachy bliss and timeless vibes, even decades after they first made waves in the music world.
