The featured web
site for this month is www.thebeachboys.com.
The Beach Boys are
one of our favorite groups, their songs and their arrangements
have certainly influenced us in our music. What more can we
say about the Beach Boys that hasn't already
been said by others. For us it seems impossible to listen to
their music and not have a smile. Their songs have secured a
place for them in music history along with the Rock
& Roll Hall of Fame, an honor well deserved. As
fans of their music, we're excited to feature their web site
this month, and we hope you enjoy reading this article as much
as we did writing it. By the way, last year we featured Beach
Boy founding member, Brian Wilson's official
web site, www.brianwilson.com. That review
contained more in depth information about the Beach Boys, the
band members, the great songs, and many of their accomplishments.
We encourage you to read that review in conjunction with this
one..(click

So
let’s get down to the BeachBoys.com web
site. First of all, the homepage is cool and screams Beach Boys
when you see it. Your eye is drawn to a beautiful picture with
surfers walking on the beach. The picture is animated with the
sun and moon rising and setting and is just beautiful to watch.
Be sure to notice the little surf board at the bottom of the
picture that helps you navigate the web site. That’s a
nice touch. The News section is front and center
and a prominent part of the homepage. All that is happening
with the Beach Boys is listed there and it’s very easy
to find. Plus, you can always research the archives for any
news you might have missed. next>>
