**editing note**- By the Beach Boys albums with lower sales, I meant the ones from the late 60s on. Their early albums were very successful. I hope my edit cleared that up, but I'm adding this in case it did not.
Now that it's late September and we're back in school, let's remember the cure to the wintertime blues. And what better cure than the eclectic mixture of music that is 1980's "Keepin' the Summer Alive."
Why is this album often dismissed so quickly by many listeners? Well, a random tracklist, the lack of a strong single, a befuddled (but seemingly cordial) production history, and a craving for nostalgia by audiences might have had something to do with it.
What are your thoughts on this unusual album?
