| From the Guidebook: |
It was here that the childhood
home of Brian, Dennis, and Carl Wilson developed their
unique musical skills. During Labor Day weekend 1961,
they, their cousin Mike Love, and a friend Al Jardine,
gathered here to record a tape of their breakthrough song
“Surfin’.” This marked the birth of
the rock group known worldwide as the Beach Boys, and
the beginning of an historic musical legacy. The music
of the Beach Boys broadcast to the world an image of California
as a place of sun, surf, and romance.
