The Beach Boys

The Beach Boys have often been called "America's Band," and Allmusic has stated that their "unerring ability made them America's first, best rock band." The group has had thirty-six United States Top 40 hits (the most by an American rock band) and fifty-six Hot 100 hits, including four number-one singles. Rolling Stone listed the Beach Boys at number 12 on their 2004 list of the "100 Greatest Artists of All Time." They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988. More recently, in 2012, the band released That's Why God Made the Radio. The Beach Boys continue to record and perform all over the world.
