In 1996, the Beach Boys took a new approach to their music with the album Stars and Stripes, in which the great harmony group (with founder Brian Wilson once again in the lineup) went to Nashville to re-record some of their best-known songs with some of the biggest names in country music, including Willie Nelson, Rodney Crowell, Tammy Wynette, Lorrie Morgan, and Ricky Van Shelton. Nashville Sounds: The Making of Stars and Stripes takes a look at the studio sessions for this historic album, and also offers footage of the Beach Boys performing with several of their new Nashville friends in concert. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
