1963 studio album by the Beach Boys
Surfin` U.S.A. is the second studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released March 25, 1963 on Capitol Records. It reached number 2 in the US during a chart stay of 78 weeks, eventually being certified gold by the RIAA, and brought the group newfound national success. It was led by one single, its title track with the B-side "Shut Down". In the UK, the album was released in late 1965 and reached number 17.
The majority of the album`s recording commenced in the first week of 1963, three months after the release of Surfin` Safari. Like the group`s debut album, production was credited ostensibly to Capitol`s representative for Artists and Repertoire, Nick Venet, although bandleader Brian Wilson was heavily involved in the album`s composition. The album marks the beginning of his practice to doubletrack vocals, resulting in a fuller sound.[2]
Background
In 1990, Brian Wilson reflected on Surfin` U.S.A. in liner notes which accompanied its first CD issue:
By the time I got to the album, Surfin’ USA, I was more experienced at producing. The album Surfin` Safari was practice for me. ... This album showcased our voices. We were just kids, but we were serious about our craft. The point being that when you are given the chance, you do your best. ... I think that I was a good coach for the boys. I didn’t like second-rate vocals. It was either the best or nothin’, in my opinion. The boys picked up. We had a good understanding between us and I was their leader. We got it done relatively fast in the studio. ... On this album, we had gotten into a fast pace: almost athletic in nature. It was because "Surfin’ USA" was such a smash hit on the radio. It was the big time for us. ... Production-wise, this album was an early Brian Wilson production.[3]

In a retrospective review, Richie Unterberger wrote: "The album as a whole is the best they would make, prior to the late `60s, as a band that played most of their instruments, rather than as a vehicle for Brian Wilson`s ideas. The LP was a huge hit, vital to launching surf music as a national craze, and one of the few truly strong records to be recorded by a self-contained American rock band prior to the British Invasion."[1] Author Luis Sanchez summarized the album`s impact on culture and the image it established for the Beach Boys:
If Surfin` U.S.A. didn`t literally transform America into an endless beach, it added vivid dimension to California mythos and took it further than anyone would have thought. You could call The Beach Boys’ version of Southern California cutesy or callow or whatever, but what matters is that it captured a lack of self-consciousness—a genuineness—that set them apart from their peers. And it was this quality that came to define Brian’s oeuvre as he moved beyond and into bigger pop productions that would culminate in Smile.[8]
