Most people know that Beach Boys recordings got progressively more complex and ornate, culminating in "Good Vibrations" as they chased The Beatles for critical acclaim. Then Sgt Peppers came out and they essentially gave up on chasing them for high art value.
The popular version of the story is they did nothing of note until Endless Summer came out, then they became a jukebox nostalgia band. But there's a 7 year gap there, and they never stopped recording. They put out some quality falsetto-driven rock and roll in those years, but all of it charted really low in the US, if at all. Oddly, they charted higher in the UK. All of these albums are inconsistent, and none are really worth a straight through listen, but there are some great singles. Try "It's about time" and "Slip on through" for a heavier side, and "Feel flows" and "All I wanna do" for something lighter.

I'm one. Pet Sounds was a visionary album. McCartney is on record saying that it was a huge influence on the Beatles as they moved out of their 'yeah yeah yeah' stage into more complex production/arranging.
