TODAY IN ROCK AND ROLL HISTORY - 10/19/1964

The LP “Beach Boys Concert” was released on Capitol Records. Produced by Brian Wilson, the live album was their seventh LP over all, and their third of the year. Recorded at the Memorial Auditorium in Sacramento, California on December 21, 1963, the performance was not augmented by any additional musicians, although it received heavy post-production at United Western Recorders in Hollywood in August of 1964. The LP would go on to become the first live album to top the Billboard chart, maintaining that position for four weeks during a sixty-two-week chart stay.
