    • @nopeteys2424

      I honestly think Mike has gotten a really unfair reputation over the years. The narrative has become that he hated Pet Sounds and SMiLE but i dont think it’s exactly true. I think he just thought that they had an obligation to sell records and that going into this experimental direction was a risk for the band, now I disagree with his point that they should put selling records before making incredible art but he ended up being right. Pet Sounds was not received well by the public other than some folks who had great taste in music and other musicians. On the SMiLE sessions box set there are behind the scenes tracks of them all recording vocals and on “Our Prayer” you can hear Mike say in between takes “Is this its own track or just an intro? Because this is beautiful it could be a whole song.” So he definitely liked the music. Mike sang his heart out on Pet Sounds and the SMiLE sessions and you never hear them arguing on the tapes, if Mike hated it so much why would he put in all that time and effort to learn those complex parts and sing them? I think Mike knew that the music Brian was making in 1966-67 was really special but he was worried it wouldn’t sell and the band would be broke and would be back to working minimum wage jobs. Im so glad Brian defied that thinking and decided to keep writing songs that were true to his soul and weren’t just marketable but Mike is made out to be an enemy and i think its not right.

      Broke and back to minimum wage jobs? Please! They had a dozen hits and four well received albuma before pet sounds. Brian and the boys could have done whatever they wanted with little to no repercussions (other than their reputations). They were millionaires! Mike Love had no excuse to be so uptight about pet sounds.

    When I started learning guitar, I got two giant books of music, The Complete Beatles and The Complete Beach Boys. The Beatles were easy to learn, even the Sgt Pepper stuff, simple chord changes etc. The Beach Boys were more difficult, uncommon and complex chord structures. McCartney and Lennon were great songwriters but Brian Wilson was even greater.

Being a hardcore Beach Boys fan and loving it for years I remembering telling everyone but they were locked into the beach boys were just a surf music band. Just Ridiculous!!! Now it's consider one of the greatest albums of all time. So glad Brian and the rest of the Beach boys were here to see it.

    The Beach Boys played a free show at about 10am in our high school gym/auditorium in L.A. in about 1963 when I was in the 11th grade. To this day, I still have no idea why my high school (Taft High) had them come there. It was fun, but it was Surfin Safari and that kind of stuff. Nobody had a clue that they would go on to do Good Vibrations, etc. and my personal favorite track, Heroes and Villains.

    Without Brian Wilson, there is no Beach Boys
    There's no doubt about it, Brian Wilson was one of the most immensely musical talented-gifted song writers-composers in modern music history, in the company of only a handful - the Beatles Lennon and McCartney, whom John Lennon stated so, as Brian and John directly competed in their iconic creative music that will last forever.
    Brian Wilson's Heroes and Villains in his Smile album which took over 30 years to finally complete after his long bout with mental depression, anxiety, schizophrenic psychosis, etc, brought on by his LSD drug use, is his / the definitive Brian Wilson song that is just impressive, is a testament to his true talent as a singer songwriter-composer, which too bad John Lennon wasn't alive to experience it.

    Thank you Brian for all the great songs you composed. When I listen to this it’s like a memory of my younger years and teenage years. I grew up going to Huntington Beach a lot back in the day.. and your songs remind me of those great times. In my twenties I used to go stay with my friends family in Illinois on the River. We’d water ski all the time, and everyone there knew me as the CA girl. And while we were on the boat with other boys we met, your song would always come on CA girls. I loved those moments. Thank you. I still love all of your songs and I agree I think you are a genius! Definitely have a gift. I live in Westwood now after living on Esplanade in Redondo for a couple years. And I think about the great times you must have had. I saw The Beach Boys play at the Angel stadium when I was about 12 when my European dad took me and my friend to the soccer game playoff and he said The Beach Boys would be there. It was great! And I saw you once in the bar at Bear restaurant in Huntington Beach but I too shy to say anything. Thx again for all your effort you put in making songs and making the world a better place to be in!

    Was thinking about the time Brian and his wife were on stage with Whoopi being interviewed by her and another person...and as hard as she tried not to, Whoopi just out of the blue started crying, and couldn't control her tears. I (and I'm sure many other people) was thinking at the time, I know exactly where you're coming from Whoopi...it's just something in the soul that can't adequately be described, but that so many of us feel about Brian and Carl's singing and sounds. We knew that all of that didn't come from this world, but a higher one somehow. I've always felt that God gave Brian especially, plus the other Beach Boys an extremely special gift, and that gift is just so precious that it touches our hearts and makes us feel as Whoopi did that day on stage. I wonder if Brian can ever understand what his music has done for so many of us in that same special way. It's indescribable, unless we could speak straight from the spirit, instead of with words.

      So true but sad that Whoopi has evolved to such a mean spirited hard nose person. I doubt she would react that way now. Just to be a fly on wall with all this talent an take it into my being.

      @@subg8858 Their ranges were similar, but at that time, in my opinion, Carl's voice had a sweeter quality to it that was required for God Only Knows. As to Good Vibrations, I don't know. Maybe Brian just preferred Carl's voice with Mike's words.

      But Brian was also not wanting to tour during this era, so Carl would have to be the one to perform them live, so best to have his voice on the album as well.

    All of Brian"s music is nostalgic to me. Since my early teens I thought I was going thru what he composed, and I bet a lot of us fans feel that. And I believe he has put into his creations sounds that have been part of rock & roll history since Bill Haley. Everything has something from my past - or has Brian tricked me into that? He is such a true gift, not only to music, but to several generations of people who grew up in a raw world that could go to The Beach Boys and exult in fun and decent expression that convinced us that we can be ourselves and succeed - cuz Brian already mapped it out for us. I wish we could thank him personally for that,

    Easily the greatest. It is like looking and hearing the most wonderful music and he is just channeling. The band. Oh my god. Pet Sounds is a brother's love manifested. Brian and Carl. They absolutely loved each other. The rest is the background to that love. My god. It's a level of creativity that is hard to comprehend.

  • @lowelledlee8019

    The first time I heard Pet Sounds I loved it, but I remember thinking that the music was so different that it would not be appreciated. I literally feared it would not be accepted and I found myself worrying about it, as if it somehow would hurt Brian and make him regret making an album too far ahead of it’s time. I would purposely watch people and try to interpret their reaction to the album. When I felt someone didn’t show the appropriate level of appreciation for a song, I took it personal. As weird as all that was, ( and that was back in ‘65 ), I still feel that way now. I was 16 then, and 72 now.

    What a great documentary! I've watched/read lots of BW/Beach Boys docs/books over the years and this is like the condensed but most real of them all. The musicians... they knew, and still know, how special and unusual Brian's talent was. Carol Kaye is so great here, as are all the wrecking crew folks, discussing the nuts and bolts music making process - the boring stuff, even for them. The sincerity and warmth is palpable. They all love Brian, and it doesn't seem like it's based solely on monetary gain or even prestige. They genuinely liked the man and his music.
    It's nice to see Brian at his most cogent and affable here, exploding a few of the myths that have surrounded his life for decades now. He's not as helpless as some would have you believe, though he's certainly had some challenges over the years. The fact that he can still discuss and even perform his life's work proves that whatever he's lost over time hasn't taken the most important part of him, and that makes me happy.
