The Beach Boys ABlairican Pie 02-13-2011, 04:23 AM The Beach Boys in fact flourished further during the British Invasion. They were dubbed "America's band", and went on to record some of the most memorable albums of their career during that time, such as 'Pet Sounds', and others. MrCleveland 02-13-2011, 12:23 PM Oddly, I'm going to say Frank Sinatra. His career was as strong as it was in the 40's and 50's that wasn't rock-and-roll...which he objected to. "Strangers in the Night" album went #1 in 1966... rDA33hGFNgQ "That's Life" was a Top-10 Hit in the same year!... 4OId8ByO4jg And to finish the 60's...Sinatra recorded the song "My Way"....A song that was basically Sinatra's tune, though he objects this....
