Description
Adult Child is an unreleased studio album by the Beach Boys that was produced in early 1977. Similar to the release it was meant to follow, The Beach Boys Love You, the album is essentially a semi-autobiographical solo effort by Brian Wilson. This version includes the full album with some additional cover songs thrown in.
Adult Child consists of seven new songs, four of which feature orchestral arrangements by Dick Reynolds, along with five older tracks that had been outtakes from earlier albums. Its subject matter ranges from healthy diets and exercise to shaving a tomboy's legs and waiting in a movie theater queue. Some of the tracks, including "It's Over Now" and "Still I Dream of It" were originally written to be recorded by singers such as Frank Sinatra.
Initially planned for issue in September 1977, the release was vetoed by Wilson's bandmates Mike Love and Al Jardine, who felt that the record was too strange to sell.
This record was only played once and is in near-mint condition. The jacket and inner sleeve are in like-new mint condition.
