M.I.U. Album is the 22nd studio album by American rock band the Beach Boys. Released on September 25, 1978, it marked their final recording for Reprise. Recorded during one of the most acrimonious periods in the band's history, only Mike Love, Al Jardine, and Brian Wilson appear consistently throughout the album, with Carl and Dennis Wilson's contributions confined to a handful of tracks. Produced by Jardine and Beach Boys touring member Ron Altbach under the nominal aegis of executive producer Brian Wilson, the album's title stems from Maharishi International University in Fairfield, Iowa, where the majority of the album was recorded.
