CarlAndThePassionsSoTough | |
| Carl and the Passions – | comment |
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Carl and the Passions – "So Tough" is the eighteenth studio album by The Beach Boys, released in 1972. It is their first album with Blondie Chaplin and Ricky Fataar, and the first since the departure of Bruce Johnston — although he appeared on "Marcella" before he quit. As a result, this is the Beach Boys album with the most members, with every member they ever had bar David Marks officially appearing on this album. Johnston would rejoin The Beach Boys permanently in 1978. This album is a major New Sound Album, to the point where the casual fan would not realise this is The Beach Boys if they are not told who this is by. Elton John is a known fan of this album, citing it as his favourite by The Beach Boys.The title of this album is a Shout-Out to a band Carl Wilson was in when he was a teenager. Upon release, this album was a moderate success commercially and received generally positive reviews. However, in the US it was paired with Pet Sounds, which indicated the lack of confidence their record company, Reprise Records, had with this album. Reprise would later reissue Pet Sounds on its own.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Fan favorites include "You Need a Mess of Help to Stand Alone", "Marcella", "All This Is That" and "Cuddle Up". | |

Darker and Edgier: "You Need a Mess of Help to Stand Alone" is very powerful heavy rock by the Beach Boys' standards. | |

New Sound Album | |

New Sound Album: The album! A complete change of sound to a style not so different from the likes of The Band, The Grateful Dead, Steely Dan and Fleetwood Mac. | |

Mythology Gag: This album partially gets its name from one of the bands Carl Wilson had formed in school prior to The Beach Boys. | |

Ethereal Choir | |
| Carl and the Passions – / int_4364fe24 | comment |
Ethereal Choir: "All This Is That" has harmony singing that sounds much like this. The religious texts, "Jai guru dev, jai…" only add to the atmosphere. | |

Real Life Writes the Plot | |
| Carl and the Passions – / int_786bf97f | comment |
Real Life Writes the Plot: It is widely believed that "Hold On Dear Brother" was written in tribute to Brian Wilson, who was mentally going through a severe breakdown at the time. The reason why Pet Sounds was included on the US release was solely because the only widely-available version at the time was the Duophonic (fake stereo) version of the album. It's even pointed out on the labels: | |

Long Title: "You Need a Mess of Help to Stand Alone". Fans generally just call it "Mess of Help" for short. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Carl and the Passions – / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The album title to a band which a teen-aged Carl Wilson was a member of. Saint Etienne named their 1993 album So Tough as a homage to The Beach Boys. That same year, they named their compilation You Need a Mess of Help to Stand Alone. | |

Refrain from Assuming | |
| Carl and the Passions – / int_effa6875 | comment |
Refrain from Assuming: The chant "Jai guru dev, jai…" in "All This Is That" is not a shout-out to "Across the Universe" from The Beatles' album Let It Be. "Jai guru dev, jai" is common chant in Hinduism and Hare Krishna. | |
