The Beach Boys

AN AMERICAN FAMILY
The Beach Boys’ long and turbulent saga is a uniquely American epic, encompassing
triumph and tragedy, innovation and excess, massive success and
crushing disappointment, the highest highs of artistic transcendence and the
lowest lows of showbiz mediocrity—as well as family dysfunction, fi nancial
chicanery, mental illness, drug abuse, unfulfi lled potential, and unexpected
redemption.
