From Wikipedia
Friends is the fourteenth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on June 24, 1968, through Capitol Records. The album is characterized by its brevity and calm atmosphere, spanning orchestral pop, waltzes, bossa nova, and lounge music, a deliberate contrast to the prevailing rock trends of the time. Five of its 12 tracks run less than two minutes long, and some of the songs were inspired by the group's recent involvement with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and his Transcendental Meditation practice.
