  • Higher quality and more complete than what currently goes on youtube! Includes a nice little segment of the boys being interviewed together and singing Their Hearts Were Full of Spring... and a brief, harrowing view of Mike in a hot tub. Viewer discretion is advised. Donated by a friend of the channel ^_^

    Hard to believe this was 42 years ago and they were talking about 20 years together back then. They were all in their 30’s. I love the end portion where they’re doing Goin’ On which is a great 80’s song

    Brian seemed cheerful and clear minded during the interview even though he did not look so well.

      true. he seemed to be mentally there and (propably) without any kind of meds at that point in time. one of the last looks we got of the not completely medicated Brian.

      Now the beachboys were a great bad , but could have been more bigger. Like for example they weren't as big as the beatles or the Rolling stones. Now Mike love plays plays a part in beachboys, but he ruined the beachboys, because he was supportive to Brian Wilson and told to stick the formular.

    I was thinking about something while watching this… pop culture used to change SO MUCH in a matter of 2 years. These days, when I think about 20 years ago, it’s not much different. Particularly with music. The difference between 1965 and 1970 is MASSIVE compared to the last 25 years.
    There’s also far less of a generation gap. Me and my adult kids basically listen to the same music. That was DEFINITELY not the case with me and my parents.

    You know about the interview from around this time that appears briefly in the A&E biography? Where he plays that 1 riff on his upright over and over and chainsmokes in his lounger looking miserable? I assume it's around the same time since he has practically the same fit on.

    Alan was on the football team! What was he,
    a buck 25 dripping wet? But, he is now the
    backbone of The Brian Wilson Band! His son
    Matt, just a wee bit bigger than Dad. Matt has
    the vocal range, to make Carl's stuff sound OK.
    But, NO ONE can equal what Carl Dean did.
    Lucky angels have the voice of Carl Dean
    Wilson!

      While I'm not truly sure when this was broadcast the common date I've seen stated is '81... obviously not necessarily true but Carl was still with them from Jan-Feb '81 and it could have obviously been recorded earlier and broadcast later! I don't know concretely so just sticking with what I've seen around ^_^

    Good Vibrations is a KILLER song!
    But, probably my least favourite.
    Only, because whenever someone
    wants a "Beach Boys" song, this is
    what they play. I can think of a
    HUNDRED songs to play. God Only
    Knows, too easy. Sloop John B,
    close. Shut Down, better. The Girls
    On The Beach, better.
