Does anyone know about this album SMILE by Brian Wilson? I dont know what it is but it got a 97 rating here on metacritic!! THATS like uber good! So i was just wondering why its so special.

Yeah, and I want it NOW!

By the way, there's another thread devoted to this album over here.

I'm listening to it right now, kraftdeluxe!

I would expect SMiLE will fine a home on many best of 2004 lists by the end of the year. In the meantime, you'll find an ongoing discussion a link to an article from The Oregonian that gives some of the history behind the album here.
