Well done. Met Dennis in the Summer of 1977 at a record signing for Pacific Ocean Blue in Dallas. He was polite , congenial and Thankful to every customer. What a talented guy. Thanks, Dennis for your enduring talents and music. Jim
It’s so unfortunate how the band lost their commercial footing after the Smile debacle and never regained their popularity because they put out so much amazing and underrated music from 67-73. Worth a listen if you haven’t check that part of their discography out.
I'm sorry to hear that Brian lost his beloved Melinda and and upset though not really surprised that he's struggling with dementia. Sail on Sailor. Courage and Godspeed!
@@wilhelmhagberg4897Pet Sounds is by most accounts a masterpiece, rated second best album ever made by Rolling Stone. You don’t have to like some of it bc of personal preferences but to say it is in places forgettable puts you on the level of professional critics. When the Beatles heard the innovative nature of it, they went about making Sgt. Pepper to one up it. So go ahead and say it is forgettable because you know more than Rolling Stone and the Beatles.
@@1957es Lol I don’t know that anyone takes Rolling Stone seriously, they only go with whatever opinions are popular at the time. I think Pet Sound is a good record, but not a ”masterpiece”. It was innovative with a cohesive theme for the entire album, which is probably what inspired the Beatles. But the song quality is very uneven. Some of the tracks, like ”Don’t Speak…” and ”God Only Knows” are masterful, others not that much. Do you really consider ”That’s not me” or ”I’m waiting for the day” masterpieces?
Every bright light will cast dark shadow and they all had their part in that; not only Dennis. And because of it they’re one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time.
I was not into The Beatles out of a teenage devotion to the Beach Boys. Later I did jump ship & it was for George Harrison. I had all the early LP records by the Beach Boys. Wish I'd kept them.
@@strangevisions5162 True, But Al was a school/football friend...David Marks was the one pictured and lived across the St from the Wilsons. Al thought they were going nowhere and was going to Dental School..
One of the greatest concerts I ever saw was the Beach Boys in Toronto in 1972 at Massey Hall. Years later we saw Brian Wilson and his band on tour. The music always sounded so easy and carefree but I've come to understand the genius behind all their songs. Wow, we're lucky.
The Beach Boys were what happened if you took The Beatles and made everything go wrong, which is incredibly sad because they're one of the greatest bands of all-time
Well, they weren’t. The Beach Boys have a few great songs and several good songs. But their albums are also littered with mediocre fillers and pointless covers. The Beatles was 100% high quality throughout their career. The Beatles were also incredibly inventive. ”Smile” and a few tracks from ”Pet Sounds” are the only instances where BB could compete.
The Beach Boys don’t play their instruments on the albums. The music was all done by “The Wrecking Crew” the group of studio musicians which includes Glen Campbell on guitar, Hal Blaine on drums, etc). The Beatles play the music on their albums.
@@wilhelmhagberg4897correction, Pet Sounds and Smile are way better than any Beatles album lmao if Smile had come out when it was supposed to they definitely would’ve been placed in that single untouchable category with the Beatles
A good overview with a very good narrator. I would maybe have spent a bit more time on the power dynamics within the band and the problems with Mike Love.
As a former California beach nut my own self, I can appreciate how life for anyone who has a magic life can have its' tramas that can blur the paradise vibration. We all have our mountains to climb and our waves to catch. Most of BBs never board surfed and neither did I. But the beauty of the waves always trumped everything else in the end. Beach Boys Music was like the majestic waves in that way. We could always ride above, even without surf boards or even the ocean for that matter 🤗 God Bless the Beach Boys. My fantasy body surfing buddies. From Redondo.

One disclaimer I often hear is people use the term party' when describing the people in the tate house , during the night of the murders, I don't think with what was investigated during the research that led up to the killings, voytek was asleep on the couch in the living room, abaigail was lying in bed in her room, reading a book, Jay was in Sharon's room, who was 8 month pregnant, and they were simply talking , when Susan came in, and told them something was happening downstairs , and to hurry down, Steve McQueen, had joined them earlier at a restaurant, so broke off from them, after he met a woman and left, many speculate if he,d had been there, and was carrying a loaded pistol, it could have been a different outcome, he was also a martial arts expert, but that of course is hindsight.
I absolutely adored these guy and every song that they sang! I grew up listening to them in the 60s,70s,80s, and 90s. Everyone of their songs has a wonderful memory behind it. I just can't say enough about these guys! ❤ Rock in Peace guys!❤ Thank you for all your beautiful songs❤
I agree 100% I loved the Beach Boys, especially Brian's voice. The Lonely Sea is my favorite song but they had so many great songs. I saw them in concert about 1967 & Brian was no longer touring & Bruce Johnson was filling in. I must admit I was disappointed.
From the abusive dynamics within the band's family to the eerie connection with Charles Manson, it's a stark reminder that success often comes with a hefty price tag.
That's really a tragic thing to happen to the Beach ⛱️ Boys as a musical rock band 😢 💔. I am glad that Brian Wilson got better as a person and a musician 🙏 😀. Dennis Winson was scared of Charles Manson 😢 and decided to stopped ✋️ hanging around the Charles Manson family , which was the best for Dennis Wilson and the Beach ⛱️ Boys as a group 😀.

@@robertmadison1205 Shawn Love was Mike's illegitimate daughter. She and Dennis (her second cousin!) were together in the last years of his life and even had a kid of their own. 🤮
Beach Boys were good but inferior knock off to the Beatles with not nearly as many good songs As much as I like Aerosmith who are a good band they too were a inferior knockoff of the Rolling Stones
The Beach Boys were superior to The Beatles in a lot of aspects (harmonies, chord progressions, and melodies in general), and Aerosmith is literally superior to the Rolling Stones in every aspect, except for the weight of their name. Go get your ears checked

I thought Dennis Wilson could been another Jim morrision.
Cool story! Huge Dennis fan and love that record!
Brian's father was a monster. And Landy was a quack.
Landy did save his life though, Brian has emphasized that.
I was fortunate enough that my father took our family to Beach Boys Concert. Something you treasurer the rest of your life. THANKS Dad!!!!

It was cigarettes with Carl wasn't it ?
@@barrycuda3769 Yeah I think so.
@@marlabilton And cigarettes with George Harrison as well.
it was actually the surfing that killed him. Dennis was the only surfer, died in the water.
Brian is a genius, I love the Holland album
David Maks deserves a lot more credit than he gets.
I consider him more relevant than Bruce Johnston
Pet Sounds is a masterpiece. It sucks it took such trauma to create.

They've been a band for 60 years and you're going to do a 12-minute deep dive?
I wanna see that Brian Wilson / Wayne Coyne interview so bad.
Today hailed as unique geniuses of musical 1960s distinctive style, there was an army of these minstrels twenty years post the 1940s world war.
From the abusive dynamics within the band's family to the eerie connection with Charles Manson, it's a stark reminder that success often comes with a hefty price tag.
Amazing Video! plus, new style is awesome!
Sharon wasnt having a party,it was hot,they were trying to keep cool.

I was amazed Charles manson meet up with Dennis Wilson, I thought he would have meet with lead singer of the Doors Jim morrision too.
John Cusack doesn't look anything like Brian Wilson

Charles mason. The super star we never got
Ol Charles Mason band
Beach Boys were good but inferior knock off to the Beatles with not nearly as many good songs
As much as I like Aerosmith who are a good band they too were a inferior knockoff of the Rolling Stones
You are way, way off the mark. The boys and their harmonies were so distinct from Lennon n McArtney rock n roll.
The Beach Boys were superior to The Beatles in a lot of aspects (harmonies, chord progressions, and melodies in general), and Aerosmith is literally superior to the Rolling Stones in every aspect, except for the weight of their name.
Go get your ears checked
The worst live band ever!
To this day, the saddest thing I've ever seen was one of their last TV performances. It was brutal
I hate to agree. Trying to perform Good Vibrations live?! It just wouldn't be the same. Only good covers IMO are from the Fendertones.
Always loathed that surf music, just awful imo
How about the many albums AFTER the brief surf period?
I like the Beach Boys but wouldn't call them rock and roll
They sucked
