20/20 is the fifteenth studio album by The Beach Boys, released in 1969. It is their final studio album released with Capitol Records until Still Cruisin' in 1989. This album is not only a showcase for the growing song-writing talents of Dennis Wilson, but it also features their first Bruce Johnston solo composition with the band.Upon release, this album was critically well-received, although it was criticised for lack of cohesion in the track listing due to the strong Genre Roulette. Commercially, the album was a much bigger success than Friends in both the UK and US, and would spawn the hits and fan favorites "Do It Again", "I Can Hear Music", "Cottonfields", and "Bluebirds Over The Mountain". The album also features important out-takes from SMiLE.Sadly the album is a bit Overshadowed by Controversy, due to the fact that notorious criminal Charles Manson wrote most of "Never Learn Not to Love", a strange remnant of Dennis Wilson's brief friendship with Manson. Had this album been released after the Tate/LaBianca murders, that song likely would've stayed in the vaults.

comment
Adaptation Expansion: The group managed to get a entire album without writing many new tracks, to whit: "Do It Again" (A previously released single from 1968) - with some of the unreleased "Smile's" workshop skit tagged on. "Be With Me" and "All I Want to Do" (both Dennis compositions) and "The Nearest Faraway Place" (a Bruce Johnston composition) "Our Prayer" and "Cabinessence" (From the unreleased "Smile"), "Time to Get Alone" (a Wild Honey outtake) and "I Went to Sleep" (a Friends outtake). In the case of "Cabinessence", Carl's vocal was newly recorded for this LP though all others were virtually the same. "I Can Hear Music", "Cotton Fields", "Bluebirds Over The Mountain" & "Never Learn Not To Love" - all cover versions - with the latter two being previously released together as a single the previous year.

Mythology Gag: This album partially gets its name due to being the 20th overall album the band had released for Capitol at that point, as well as being the final album the band would release for them before their departure for Reprise Records.

comment
Mad Artist: Charles Manson: cult leader, serial murder, political insurgent, and writer of "Never Learn Not To Love" The band was rattled when Manson threatened to murder Dennis Wilson for changing a line in the song's lyrics, and even more so when evidence of Manson's gruesome crimes later came to light.

Genre Roulette: The album! With touches of country, hard rock, psychedelia, folk, and with "Do It Again" a nostalgic surf sound.

comment
Rearrange the Song: Dissatisfied by the album version of "Cotton fields", Al Jardine wanted to rerecord it with a punchier approach similar to Rock Country. The song was retitled "Cottonfields" and released as a single which performed well worldwide (especially in Europe where it was included in the EU version of Sunflower.

Word Salad Lyrics: "Cabinessence", which retained the famously dense, Joycean lyrics that characterized the work of Van Dyke Parks on the SMiLE project, including the lines that led to the infamous confrontation between Mike Love and Parks.
