'''News flash for Beach Boys fans: Whatever your opinion of any Beach Boys album, Wikipedia is not the place to voice that opinion. Please don't put opinionated bullshit in these articles, either in support or in slander of the albums or songs contained on them. Keep your opinions to yourselves and write a neutral article.'''

Fixed So Far
These are the Beach Boys album articles that I've removed POV and speculation from so far:
 * M.I.U. Album
 * L.A. (Light Album)
 * Keepin' the Summer Alive
 * Ten Years of Harmony
 * The Beach Boys (album)
 * Made in U.S.A.
 * Still Cruisin'
 * Summer in Paradise
 * Good Vibrations: Thirty Years of The Beach Boys

POV Hall of Shame
Here are some of the more atrocious examples of POV in these articles:

M.I.U. Album

 * "Most critics – then and now – have considered M.I.U. Album to be a slight affair, and indicative that The Beach Boys, once a band who were at the cutting edge, were now merely following trends."

L.A. (Light Album)

 * "Mike Love's Japanese fantasy track "Sumahama" was also a U.K. single chart entry later in 1979. In fans eyes, the track is seen as another laughably weird indulgence by Love."
 * "Undeniably the most controversial moment on the album was the recasting of Wild Honey's 'Here Comes the Night' "

Keepin' the Summer Alive

 * "Dennis Wilson, at extreme odds with the rest of the group, lasted a couple of sessions before storming out, taking no further part in the album."
 * "Although Carl Wilson composed a few pleasant tracks with Canadian rocker Randy Bachman and did some fine singing, Keepin' the Summer Alive was mostly a patch job of old ideas and mediocre new ones."

Ten Years of Harmony

 * "Released at a low point in the band's history..."
 * "...and a selection from Dennis' critically acclaimed solo album..."
 * "A charitable collection, Ten Years of Harmony sold enough in its release to make #156 in the U.S."

The Beach Boys

 * "Although "Getcha Back" (composed by Love and his new musical partner, former Byrds producer Terry Melcher) was a hit, the album was roundly criticized by most reviewers for sounding soulless and slick."

Made in U.S.A.

 * "...in addition to a sampling of their later, post-peak hits..."

Still Cruisin'

 * "Despite the presence of the last truly great Beach Boys track "Somewhere Near Japan", it was a bit of hodge-podge, but it worked."

Summer in Paradise

 * "The album was universally criticised upon its release, and is often named The Beach Boys' worst album..."
 * "...former Full House star John Stamos, caused great consternation among fans by covering Dennis Wilson's signature tune 'Forever'."
 * "Despite a remix and re-release in the U.K. in 1993, it was just as unsuccessful, and it retains its poor reputation."

Good Vibrations: Thirty Years of The Beach Boys

 * "Full of classic hits, standout album tracks and rarities..."
 * "A treasure trove for the dedicated Beach Boys fan..."
