Don't underestimate the quality of Mike Douglas as an interviewer. He had a way of making folks comfortable on his show that nobody has ever duplicated. Mike Douglas was the only person capable of getting such a candid, intimate interview.
I don’t think Brian is even capable of being fake or pretentious. He’s been hearing the whole ‘genius’ thing for almost 60 years now, and not once has he ever let it go to his head.
Brian was _maybe_ being honest about drugs here. I'm not 100% he was not on coke during this interview. He's got the pressured speech that is not typical of him. But...I've also heard interviews with him shortly after, when he was for sure back on the blanca, where he sounds a lot less Asperger's-y than he does here. Brian has always been on the spectrum, and you can hear that in interviews going back to the early 60s. He has that quality somewhat here and prominently in the 90s and beyond. But over the next few years, he would sound more coherent and, for lack of a better way to put it, _normal_ while snowblind. I think he was self-medicating his ASD with cocaine in particular.
aran125 Given that he was by this point A: a severe drug addict and B: a mental patient; No, I dont believe him. Cocaine makes you extremely talkative and confident. Like he is in this interview.
That was a classic interview. Brian was in great form, gut honest. Mike Douglas was a heck of an interviewer too. He could put people at ease and have a conversation like no other.
+liverneck jones Mike Douglas was good interviewer. I watched his show for many years. He came on around 4 PM after I got home from school. He had all the greats on his show because they trusted him.
I love Brian. Good interview. I wouldn't know if he's on anything in this interview - I would prefer to think not. He just comes across as honest as always. Brian phoned each of us personally when we donated to the Hurricane Katrina fund. Hence, I spent a few minutes with him on the phone a couple of years ago. He is a charming man and I'm so thankful he's still with us.
After watching this video it's more clear than ever that Landy's pills messed up the future Brian, not the LSD. I always wanted to believe that Landy saved his life, pulled him out of his mess and got him sober, skinny, and alive again (which I'm sure he did for a period of time).. but to anyone who thinks the LSD he did in the late 60's messed up Brian's future (his brain, his speech etc.) should watch this video right here. He is more clear-thought and positive than ever.
You are correct. The LSD might have made him withdraw a bit, but the prescription meds Landy gave him throughout the 80s probably did the most neurological damage. Look and watch this interview and then watch a supposedly 'healthy' Brian's interview with Diane Sawyer 15 years later. Night and day.
I was thinking Wow! Brian is clear minded...articulate.....today he obsessed with "voices in his head".......they tell him, "We are going to kill you"....
@@metv2363 Lots of questions though. To what extent did Brain need the meds to function? Was he over prescribed those meds? Did you take them longer than he needed them?
I believe that a lot of people with exceptionally creative minds can overcome unusual obstacles in life that would have otherwise taken other people's lives who were/are not as innovative in their outlook. There is something about the inner enlightenment that keeps people like Brian going, despite any and all challenges like the ones he faced, and others to follow.
***** You got that right! How honest and refreshing to hear a real person just let it out. Brian was not the only to tell it like it was-at that time period 60's to 70's it was important to keep it real and not regurgitate the bullshit and sugar coated environment and unreal world of the 50's and the "older" establishment.
My mom was a Mike Douglas fan. I started to watch him when I was about 13 and was instantly a fan. I recall so many great shows and im sure folks remember he would have co hosts for the full week. The John Lennon week was incredible. I wish things could go back to how they were...
I loved watching this. Huge genius aside, there's something truly sweet and genuine about this man. And for those of us who were born after the 70's, it's beautiful to see him so clear minded and full of vitality as late as 1976.
A musical genius who was totally open and honest about his problems on this 1976 interview. (Something that most 'celebrities' would never admit to).. Unfortunately, some greedy 'care givers' took advantage of Brian's naive honesty..
The thing is as sobering is to see this level of honesty coming from a talent this big, I don't tend to unanimously side with the narrative that a person's intentions and genuineness wholly depends on how quote on quote sane they appear to be. I know it may seem like a compliment to some but it may come off as patronizing to some degree, esp to the person on that receiving end.
its been so long since i watched Mike Douglas, i forgot how great he was. serious straight to the meat questions. yet not a hint of antagonism... certainly better than any journalist working today.
Honest interview and answers. Regardless of what you think of Wilson and his slips or mental capacity, he gives honest answers. Very rare for then or especially now.
Thanks Brian , for speaking the truth . Drugs then where everywhere, and you got into it because of the huge pressure you where under!!! Glad you made it and got sober!!!
Mike Douglas was really good at this type of exchange. Brian Wilson is an absolute genius, and I love how honest and outspoken. I have a lot of his issues, none of his talents.
***** he was under the "care" of Landy in '76, as well...the difference 10 years later was 10 added years of drug related damage as well as Landy's misdiagnosis of Brian which led to him being on the wrong drugs to "cure" him.
Landy's not the first and by no means the last shrink to fuck with a patients brain. They all do it. Shrinks are all crazy. I mean come on now why do you think they get into it?? Stay away from shrinks, there's a time and place to conservatively let them assist you if you really need it. Landy got his license Yanked for what he did to Brian.
@@shigsho he should have listened to mike love more, because he got more into weirder music and stopped making the music that got himself and his band on the spotlight
@@gwkiv1458 it would have been better for them both artistically and economically to keep making surfy or early 60's culture american type music than to make something that only sounds cool when very stoned or on acid, which is what smile was only except for the songs heroes and villains and little pad, and also pretty much the rest of the music they made after that, but i think brian was satisfied for the rest of his life with pet sounds
You can really appreciate the quiet nature of the audience. While they have their reactive elements they are genuinely placed and not the uneasy laughter that follows every statement possibly derailing an open and honest conversation
Love this man! He does remarkably well and yes, MUCH prefer THIS Brian to the medicated and hypnotized 80s guy. Let's face it: as mega-talented writer/player/singer/producer/figurehead of a whole scene Brian was UNMATCHED from say 1963--1966. Huge talent and totally in charge young man. Amazing.
Brian is being so honest and open in this interview. He was a musical genius but also a man-child. This video speaks volumes on how he is a trusting soul. It is easy to see how people manipulated him his whole life. Mental issues mixed with family abuse mixed with drugs mixed with insecurity is a toxic mix.
Brian's always been nuts, but he had a lot of character and confidence when interacting with people, displaying an ability to handle conversations with fluid dialogue and expressive body language. I'm aware Landy got Brian in a good physically shape, but by god - what was he prescribing him? Between 1980 and 1990, the psychological degradation of Brian Wilson is empirical, and following his separation from Landy, Wilson was left in a chronically confused state, unable to communicate in a normal manner - with eyes that just didn't look right at all
Hes firing on all cylinders here, hes really sharp. I wonder if further drug use caused him to slow down, or was it the prescription drugs from Landy that did it ? If you like the Beatles also I made something, to see it just type in the search bar above this title..... 'Beatles sketch with snippets'
From what I've seen around the internet most fingers tend to point to Dr. Landy as the source for Brian's issues later in life. It crushes me to see a man rid of his addiction, only to me strapped back into it by his doctor 5 years later
Recorded 1976 ..... He went town hill after this .... for many years. This was by no means the end of his nightmare ..... It is amazing that he outlived his two brothers. He did have guts doing this interview .....
Brian really has been through quite a bit. One funny yet sad story is when Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop went to go visit Brian at his house. Brian had them singing the song Shortnin Bread for about an hour and also was telling them with a straight face that it was the greatest song every written. After the hour Iggy split saying that this was too f***ing weird for him. And Iggy is a guy who used to cut himself up on stage so that that he freaked is kind of funny. Alice also was creeped out.
Mental Illness and Drug addiction or any addiction tends to go hand in hand. its a hell of a struggle and if you are someone who is talented, and makes alot of money while managing yourself the only way you know how, you are very alone, because nobody understands or knows what youre dealing with on a daily basis, and you are very vulnerable. people that see your struggles and vulnerablilities, certain kinds of people, exploit and use someone like Brian Wilson. I could be wrong but it wouldnt shock me if even the best intentioned people in his life in some way or another didnt take advantage of the situation. that kind of talent doesnt come without vulnerablities. when people see a great thing they naturaly want to be apart of it, but in wanting that, they kind of trample the one who has this talent until that person loses himself, and from time to time, that person just needs to get away from that any way they can. sometimes its drugs, sometimes its isolation, sometimes its music. sometimes, its anything BUT music for a while.

Honest about drugs, honest about money. This is a real dude right here.

@@coldacreLemmy wasn’t quite on the same level of ‘famous’ as Brian, but yes. You’re right.

Wow he really opens up in this interview. That takes a lot of him because he's so shy and socially backward. We love you, Brian.
This is his best interview in my opinion. He is so open, energetic, and full of personality here. Landy really f***ed his brain up.
aran125 He's high as a kite.
Think so? Maybe. Tell ya one thing, I think he looks good here. He's just seems way more open to me.

Brian Wilson is just that kind of guy you have to love. He's just lovable! ❤️
He’s a teddy bear! Not to mention the greatest musical genius of the last 100 years!
you just don't see conversations like this on television anymore....
No such thing as intelligent talk shows anymore. Dick Cavett , Michael Parkinson - all gone. The great dumbing down is truly underway.
daytime tv is really pathetic....a lot of stars were just more intelligent then....watch mike douglas and john lennon....
+liverneck jones Mike Douglas was good interviewer. I watched his show for many years. He came on around 4 PM after I got home from school. He had all the greats on his show because they trusted him.

Could not agree more. Brian had problems in the Sixties-most definitely; however he was so lucid and engaged in any number of interviews, pre-Landy.
Easily the best interview I've seen of Brian Wilson. Dude is a legend.
Pure example of a genius
I’m a genius too ya know?…
Who would have ever thought that he would outlive his brothers!?!

And let's not forget this was in the middle of the day on network TV. The '70's were a never-to-be-seen-again decade for both film and television.
You're wrong, TV today is nothing but CIA assets like it is in this video.
No one would admit and say "Cocaine was the most beautiful high"
They wont let them
What a great guy. All three of the brothers were so real. So sad Dennis and Carl are gone.
Great open interview. Brian honest and true about the drugs. Should be viewed by anyone contemplating a drug induced life style.
Genuine bloke.
Brian, so honest and true. Glad he made it back. His talent is off the hook
Brian is a musical genius
Brian Wilson thank you for making the world a beautiful place with your songs

I don't think you'll find a more open and honest person in this world than Brian Wilson.
That is perhaps the best interview I have ever seen with Brian.
He should have put his arms around the man and said how special he was and how lucky we were to be alive when he was.
You just have to love this man, he is so brutally honest and down to earth. 🥰
He is more expressive, alert, and animated in this interview than I have seen him in decades. He was a zombie when I met him in the mid 80's.

Amazingly forthright! I wish the youth of today could this a little more of a listen to.
over a hundred dollars a day ....that was a lot of money in the 1970s.
$420.49
nah, closer to $800
I was making $75 a week in 1970 and that was a fairly good wage.
Even today it would be alot to be spending on a daily basis, not for a millionaire of course but still
I like Brian's honesty on the whole drug issue that plagued him for all those years.
Can you imagine an interview like this today?
WOW..... i never saw Brian like this...it looks like he´s lucky about that someone talks with him :D i wish he would be everytime like this
Brian really made some insightful points in this video. Great to see him and the Boys touring once again this year!
what a interview ive never heard anyhtinglike that

I agree with the brilliant part, by I wouldn't say he is eloquent. I would say he is bruttally honest though.......
good point Nicky.. I was just taken by this interview because I have seen so many where he was barely communicative..
Wow bri was soooo candid about coke. And gives a warning too. Wore heart on his sleave. Sweet guy. We're made of chemistry, great line no pun intended
