Completely different styles. It is like comparing pears and apples. I like both.

The Beatles' body of work is far superior to The Beach Boys'...

I just got the Smile Sessions BOX SET so the Beatles can just suck it with their 2012 remasters.

Not to mention Brian Wilson is practically the reason Sgt. Peppers exists, and Smile blows it out of the water.

Surf's Up also has the most killer album art. I need to listen to Holland. And Smiley Smile is very out there, as well as being very mellow listening.

Yes you do need to listen to Holland! Their California Saga song is comprised of 3 different parts which is probably in my opinion the most satisfying song they ever recorded! Trader, Leaving This Town, Pretty Funky etc etc. This and Surf's Up is their crowning moment in their entire career which most people missed by then. The band had long fallen off the radar screen, but the harmony is breathless to listen to and the songs will blow you away.......

I generally like the Beatles more, but the influence the Beach Boys had on the Beatles shouldn't be taken lightly.

On a side note, Holland is my favorite Beach Boys album. I went to college in San Luis Obispo, Calfornia, which is basically at the southern end of the region the California Saga is about. I've always felt a personal connection to it. For a long time, I only knew it on vinyl (my dad's copy), and I had hoped for years to find it on CD. I was so happy once it was available on CD. Now, the album makes me long for being back in that central California region.
