''Holland'' is the nineteenth studio album by Music/TheBeachBoys, released in 1973. It is their second and final studio album to feature Blondie Chaplin and Ricky Fataar. At the end of 1973, Chaplin quit the band after a fight with band manager Steve Love (Brother of [[Music/MikeLove Mike]]). Fataar left the following year, after Dennis Wilson regained the use of his hands to play drums. Fataar would go on to be a part of the comedy band Music/TheRutles, as well as making the occasional guest drumming appearance on later Beach Boys albums. It is also their last with the involvement of manager Jack Rieley. He was manager of this band since shortly after ''Music/{{Sunflower}}'''s release, and made a major impact on the band and its direction. But he mutually parted with The Beach Boys shortly after the release of this album.
As the title suggests, the album was recorded mainly in the Netherlands. As with the previous album ''Music/CarlAndThePassionsSoTough'', Music/BrianWilson made very few contributions to this album. However, he would create a bonus EP for this album called '''''Mount Vernon And Fairway (A Fairy Tale)''''', narrated mainly by Jack Rieley. Music/DennisWilson had no lead vocals on this album (Except co-lead vocals on "Steamboat"), but his songs "Steamboat" and "Only With You" were included. "We Got Love" was originally supposed to be on this album, but was cut at the last minute in favour of "Sail On, Sailor". Early German pressings of this album mistakenly included "We Got Love", though it did not see official release until a 2016 reissue. A live version of the song saw release on "The Beach Boys In Concert" in 1974, however.
Upon release, this album was greeted with very positive reviews, and was one of the Magazine/RollingStone magazine's picks for the Album Of The Year. Music/ElvisCostello has cited this album as one of his favourites of all-time in a list published by Vanity Fair in 2000 of his ''500 favourite albums of all time''', where he called "The Trader" his favourite song on the record. Hits and fan favourites include "Sail On, Sailor", "California Saga: California", "The Trader" and "Only With You".

----
!! Troping This Town:
* AddedAlliterativeAppeal: "California Saga: Big Sur"
--> ''Sparklin' springs from the mountainside''
* AlliterativeTitle: "'''S'''ail On, '''S'''ailor".
* ArtisticLicenseGeography: The band recorded this album in the Netherlands, hence the name. Despite this, they still used the word "Holland" to refer to the country, instead of the official name ''The Netherlands''. Probably to avoid a LongTitle and since most people, even Dutchmen, refer to the country that way (it was pretty much the norm in the 70s).
* CoverVersion: "California Saga: The Beaks of Eagles" is essentially a Robinson Jeffers poem ("Beaks of Eagles") set to music.
* EducationalSong: "California Saga: The Beaks of Eagles" warns humans it's InYourNatureToDestroyYourselves, but that there is hope too:
--> ''It is good for man''
--> ''To try all changes, progress and corruption, powers, peace and anguish,''
--> ''Not to go down the dinosaur's way''
--> ''Until all his capacities have been explored: and it is good for him''
--> ''To know that his needs and nature are no more changed, in fact, in ten''
--> ''Thousand years than the beaks of eagles.''
--> ''Of the eagle's plight, we know that nature's balance is undone.''
--> ''And it's the birthright of man to unify and live his life as one.''
--> ''A whisper of the word will let you soar with your soul.''
* GayParee: "Funky Pretty"
--> ''The cream of gay Parisee, funky pretty''
* InHarmonyWithNature: "California Saga: Big Sur"
--> ''Cashmere hills filled with evergreens''
--> ''Flowin' from the clouds down to meet the sea''
--> ''With the granite cliff as a referee''
--> ''Crimson sunsets and golden dawns''
--> ''Mother deer with their newborn fawns''
--> ''Under Big Sur skies and that's where I belong.''
* InTheStyleOf: Brian composed "Sail On, Sailor" while having Music/RayCharles in mind (this inspiration won't go unnoticed, cause Ray himself would play the song at the 25th anniversary concert of the band's career).
* {{Instrumental}}: The majority of "Mount Vernon And Fairway (A Fairy Tale)", if you discount Jack Rieley's narration on much of it.
* ListSong: "Funky Pretty", where a girl is bestowed with various honorific titles:
--> ''And if you're cosmically conscious you'll see''
--> ''Why she's a princess incarnate to me''
--> ''Daughter of Neptune the ruler of the sea''
--> ''The queen in Copenhagee (Funky pretty)''
--> ''The dream of Amsterdamee (Pretty funky)''
--> ''The cream of gay Parisee (Funky pretty)''
--> ''The theme of U Say Asee (Pretty funky)''
--> ''The scene in Great Britainyee (Funky pretty)''
--> ''The meaning in Los Angees (Pretty funky)''
--> ''The heat in Tokyosee (Funky pretty)''
--> ''The treat in Manhattohsee (Pretty funky)''
--> ''Yeah yeah funky pretty''
* MoodWhiplash: "The Trader" talks about the title-character (based on the european explorers of the 15th century) who sails to the Americas and wishes to get rid of the indigenous people living there. The first part of the song (rhythmic, uplifting, adventurous) is the trader's perspective while the second part (slow, melancholic, sorrowful) is the indeginous' perspective.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: "Steamboat", where the tranquillity of a river is described and the only action happens near the end when one Mr. Fulton is informed that they will get his steamboat rollin'.
* NewSoundAlbum: The most {{progressive rock}} The Beach Boys ever got.
* OneWordTitle: "Holland", "Steamboat".
* RearrangeTheSong: "California Saga: California" was rerecorded for its US single release a few months later. The UK single, however, predates it and so features the Holland version of the song.
* ShoutOut:
** "California Saga: The Beaks of Eagles"
--> ''And Lenin has lived and Jehovah died: while the mother-eagle''
--> ''Hunts her same hills, crying the same beautiful and lonely cry''
** Country Joe (from Country Joe And The Fish) gets a mention on "California Saga: California". Author Creator/JohnSteinbeck is also name-dropped:
--> ''Have you ever been down Salinas way?''
--> ''Where Steinbeck found the valley''
--> ''And he wrote about it the way it was in his travelin's with Charley''
* StepUpToTheMicrophone: Jack Rieley is the narrator for ''Mount Vernon And Fairway (A Fairy Tale)''.
** Also, Carl Wilson`s then-three year old son Jonah says "Hi!" at the beginning of "The Trader".
* SpecialGuest: Then-former Beach Boy Bruce Johnston sings backing vocals on "California Saga: California".
* TheBusCameBack: It took until 2016 - 43 years after intended release - for "We Got Love" to make an official appearance on the album, when it appeared on an audiophile remaster. The song was surprisingly overlooked for the group's two box sets "Good Vibrations" and "Made In California" and an earlier compilation "Ten Years Of Harmony", so was much appreciated by fans.
* TimeMarchesOn: "California Saga: The Beaks of Eagles" has the band refer the year '85, which refers to 1885.
--> ''The she-eagle is older than I: she was here when the fires of eighty-five''
--> ''Raged on these ridges,''
--> ''She was lately fledged and dared not hunt ahead of them, but ate scorched meat''
--> ''The world has changed in her time; humanity has multiplied,''
* VoiceChangeSurprise: Brian's voice as The Pied Piper on "Mount Vernon and Fairway" has a [[DeepSouth southern accent]] and a moronic tone to the point that you wouldn't recognize that it's the same guy who provided falsetto vocals for the band.

As the title suggests, the album was recorded mainly in the Netherlands. As with the previous album ''Music/CarlAndThePassionsSoTough'', Music/BrianWilson made very few contributions to this album. However, he would create a bonus EP for this album called '''''Mount Vernon And Fairway (A Fairy Tale)''''', narrated mainly by Jack Rieley. Music/DennisWilson had no lead vocals on this album (Except co-lead vocals on "Steamboat"), but his songs "Steamboat" and "Only With You" were included. "We Got Love" was originally supposed to be on this album, but was cut at the last minute in favour of "Sail On, Sailor". It remains unofficially released to this day, though early German pressings of this album mistakenly included "We Got Love".

As the title suggests, the album was recorded mainly in the Netherlands. As with the previous album ''Music/CarlAndThePassionsSoTough'', Music/BrianWilson made very few contributions to this album. However, he would create a bonus EP for this album called '''''Mount Vernon And Fairway (A Fairy Tale)''''', narrated mainly by Jack Rieley. Dennis Wilson received no lead vocals on this album (Except co-lead vocals on "Steamboat"), but his songs "Steamboat" and "Only With You" were included. "We Got Love" was originally supposed to be on this album, but was cut at the last minute in favour of "Sail On Sailor". It remains unofficially released to this day, though early German pressings of this album mistakenly included "We Got Love".

'''''Holland''''' is the nineteenth studio album by Music/TheBeachBoys, released in 1973. It is their second and final studio album to feature Blondie Chaplin and Ricky Fataar. At the end of 1973, Chaplin quit the band after a fight with band manager Steve Love (Brother of Mike). Fataar left the following year, after Dennis Wilson regained the use of his hands to play drums. Fataar would go on to be a part of the comedy band Music/TheRutles, as well as making the occasional guest drumming appearance on later Beach Boys albums. It is also their last with the involvement of manager Jack Rieley. He was manager of this band since shortly after ''Music/{{Sunflower}}'''s release, and made a major impact on the band and it's direction. But he mutually parted with The Beach Boys shortly after the release of this album.
As the title suggests, the album was recorded mainly in the Netherlands. As with the previous album ''Music/CarlAndThePassionsSoTough'', Music/BrianWilson made very few contributions to this album.

Upon release, this album was greeted with very positive reviews, and was one of the Magazine/RollingStone magazine's picks for the Album Of The Year. Music/ElvisCostello has cited this album as one of his favourites of all-time. Hits and fan favourites include "Sail On Sailor", "California Saga: California", "The Trader" and "Only With You".
