Still Cruisin’

The Beach Boys

A high-gloss 1980s celebration of California myth-making. Digital synthesizers and gated drums meet those legendary, sun-drenched vocal harmonies.

August 28, 1989 · Capitol Records

Unapologetically sunny and nostalgic with a high-gloss commercial finish.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition into the tropical, steel-drum-inflected chorus of Kokomo that defined their late-career resurgence.
The surprisingly gritty guitar riff opening Wipeout before the Fat Boys' rap verses take over.
The lush, multi-tracked vocal harmonies on Somewhere Near Japan that recall their classic mid-sixties sophistication.
