''Carl and the Passions – "So Tough"'' is the eighteenth studio album by Music/TheBeachBoys, released in 1972.

As a result, this is the Beach Boys album with the most members, with every member they ever had bar David Marks officially appearing on this album.

However, in the US it was [[ExecutiveMeddling paired with]] ''Music/PetSounds'', which indicated the lack of confidence their record company, Creator/RepriseRecords, had with this album. Reprise would later reissue ''Pet Sounds'' on its own.

'''''Carl And The Passions - "So Tough"''''' is the eighteenth studio album by Music/TheBeachBoys, released in 1972. It is their first album with Blondie Chaplin and [[Music/TheRutles Ricky Fataar]], and the first since the departure of Bruce Johnston - although he appeared on "Marcella" before he quit. As a result, this is the Beach Boys album with the most members, with every member they ever had bar David Marks officially appearing on this album. Johnston would rejoin The Beach Boys permanently in 1978. This album is a major NewSoundAlbum, to the point where the casual fan would not realise this is The Beach Boys if they are not told who this is by. Music/EltonJohn is a known fan of this album, citing it as his favourite by The Beach Boys.
The title of this album is a ShoutOut to a band Carl Wilson was in when he was a teenager. Upon release, this album was a moderate success commercially and received generally positive reviews. However, in the US it was [[ExecutiveMeddling paired with]] ''Music/PetSounds'', which indicated the lack of confidence their record company had with this album.
Fan favourites include "You Need A Mess Of Help To Stand Alone", "Marcella", "All This Is That" and "Cuddle Up".
