Pet Sounds - Giraffe

The Beach Boys seen here at the legendary photo shoot for Pet Sounds at the San Diego Zoo on February 10, 1966. A popular alternative to the cover selection for the iconic Pet Sounds album. This reportage style shot of The Beach Boys with the giraffes was part of a series of outtakes taken with some of the larger animals. The shoot was a conscious effort to reflect the style of the mid-60s with the clean cut hairlines and striped and plaid shirts giving way to more contemporary clothes and hairstyles that reflected the band's evolution from surfing music to embracing the emerging California music sound they had spawned. Photographed by George Jerman.
