Carl Wilson Life Story (1946 - 1998) The Beach Boys Lead Guitarist Carl Wilson is one of the most-loved and much-missed vocalists and musicians of his generation, whose glorious voice and authoritative guitar graced scores of great recordings. His premature death at just 51, on February 6, 1998, robbed us of many more years of his fine work. Carl Dean Wilson was an American rock and roll singer and guitarist, best known as a founding member, lead guitarist and sometime lead vocalist of The Beach Boys. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988. Wilson played the Chuck Berry-esque guitar parts on many of the band’s early hits. Because the band first became successful when he was in his teens, he was still developing as a musician and singer. His lead vocals in the band’s first three years included “Summertime Blues” (duet with David Marks), “Louie, Louie” (splitting the lead with Mike Love), “Pom Pom Play Girl,” “All Dressed Up for School”, and “Girl Don’t Tell Me”. When the band started being augmented or replaced by session musicians on many of their mid-’60s recordings (they contributed the majority of the instrumental work themselves on the early-’60s recordings), unlike the other members of the band Carl often played side by side in the studio with the session pros that Brian increasingly turned to from 1964 onward, or recorded his guitar leads during the Beach Boys vocal sessions, with his guitar plugged directly into the soundboard. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe To The Remember This UA-cam Channel Here ► geni.us/RememberThisChannel ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 💥 History and Nostalgia Channel (20th Century History Documentaries)💥 Welcome to the Remember This UA-cam History and Nostalgia Channel where we discuss thought provoking subject matter from recent the recent past to modern day... get ready for 20th Century History Documentaries content on all things from conspiracy theories to real events and how they shaped our lives.

I had the good fortune to see The Beach Boys live in 1995. Carl was always being overshadowed by Mike Love, but his lead vocals on "Good Vibrations" and "God Only Knows" were downright angelic. It wasn't until he died that people realized that he was the glue holding the group together.
Carl probably didn't mind Mike taking the attention. When Carl had a brief solo career in the early 80s, he said he gained more respect for Mike's roll as front man. Carl wasn't comfortable in that position.
@@truthtransistorradio6716That’s because Carl was an introvert, and Mike is the epitome of an _extrovert._ Mike loves to put himself out there and ham it up. Carl preferred to hang back and express himself through his guitar playing, and sing the occasional lead. Without a doubt Carl had the best voice of any of the Beach Boys, and sang lead on some of their finest songs, but he wasn’t exactly aching to get up on the mic. That was very much Mike’s thing.
Carl Wilson faced several personal and professional challenges during his career, including drug addiction and legal battles, but he continued to persevere and create music that touched the hearts of millions.
He had much trouble with the selective Service (Draft Board), by refusing to be drafted, & claiming he was a Conscientious Objector. He offered his services (along w/the Beach Boy Band), to play music for the troops, in lieu of any military service. It was denied by the Draft Board... :(
Carl has always been my favorite Beach Boy. The songs that are my favorite are "Heaven" and "I Can Hear Music". I loved his voice. The world lost a fantastic vocalist and musician. R.I.P. Carl 💕
Yes, it seemed that Carl was the spiritual glue that kept them functioning through all their challenges of those times. It tough being the kings of that time but to me, they still have it over every and any group then and since then. Who harmonize both the voices and instruments like Brian's group, the Beach Boys!
Carl Wilson was an immensely talented musician and lead guitarist of The Beach Boys, who left an indelible mark on the music industry during his career.
Carl's voice was the magic glue behind the Beach Boys iconic sound. Back in 1998 without social media most fans had no idea he was sick. I just remember turning on my computer and getting an email that he had passed...I was blindsided. I met Carl back in the early 80s and out of all the Beach Boys he seemed to go out of his way to make sure it was a memorable experience for a fan. RIP sweet Carl.
It completely caught me off guard as well. I’ll never forget that moment. I was in Austin, TX at a Jiffy Lube waiting on an oil change, and the news was announced on the little waiting room TV. My jaw just hit the floor. Felt like getting sucker punched in the gut. I think it was like that for most fans. Like you said, no social media in those days. I had _zero_ prior knowledge that he was even ill. That was a rough one.
Each one of the Wilson brothers was cool in their own way. Brian was the crazy genius. Dennis the bad boy and Carl was so cool he seemed to be unfazed by anything.
The first time I saw a video of Carl singing Darlin,’ it floored me! I had been thinking of him as the chubby teenager all those years, yet here was this knockout handsome rock star singing a fantastic song that I’d never heard, who instantly became my favorite Beach Boy, and who stirred my heart. It’s so sad that his gift as a singer, songwriter and musician is no more. I’m so glad that I got to see Carl perform in those later years. He truly was sensational.
Carl was my favorite with that snappy surf guitar and angelic voice! I Can Hear Music and God Only Knows are two of their best songs on a very long list of great songs, perhaps 60+ really good hits. Loved them in the early and mid 60's and never get bored with the best group ever. Nobody has accomplished what Brian Wilson amassed and he is truly the behind the scenes genius, taking the group way past what any other group ever could. Nobody can match the vocals and instrumental sounds like the Beach Boys. Lets not forget Alan Jardine who also got better to be invaluable to the group.
I’ll never forget the moment when I first got the news that Carl had passed. I was in Austin TX, sitting in the tiny little waiting area at a Jiffy Lube, waiting on an oil change. There was a little TV mounted up in the corner and the announcement came in on the news that Carl Wilson had lost his battle with cancer. I didn’t even know he had cancer, or that he was ill in any way. My jaw just hit the floor. It was as if someone had suckerpunched me in the gut. I’ve been a huge Beach Boys fan my entire life, and the news completely caught me off guard. That was a rough day.
Wonderfully done thank you Girl Dont tell me is such a good song he walked in peace truly a man to admire my hat off to you Carl the untold joy you have shared with the world we are gratefull my unmet friend
That’s such a great song. Kind of like their response to “Ticket To Ride”. I always loved the way the Beach Boys and the Beatles inspired each other. That friendly trans-Atlantic competition was what really laid the foundations for so much of the great music of the 60’s.
Carl Wilson's story is a testament to the power of music to transcend boundaries and bring people together, and his contribution to the music industry will always be remembered and celebrated.
Carl was such a beautiful person. I had the pleasure to meet him in the early 80's and a few more times in that period of time to speak to him. He was a kind, gentle soul. That was how most people who knew him personally described him often. All of his work is my favorite. I could not pick one over another. He was already a seasoned professional by the time of his unfortunate passing. Carl, RIP.
Carl was the most serious musician in The Beach Boys. I’ve heard many musician who played with the group say that they took compliments from the group with a grain of salt, but if you got a compliment or even constructive criticism from Carl, THAT was something special.
All the members were unique in their own way. What they all did and create when they were together is nothing less than divinely inspired the way I see it...
Carl Wilson's influence extended beyond The Beach Boys, as he collaborated with several other artists and contributed to numerous albums throughout his career.
I’ve been to Carl’s grave to pay my respects. On his gravestone is inscribed “The Voice of an Angel”. I highly agree. He is very underrated in rock and roll. Nobody had a voice or played like him.
The video documenting Carl Wilson's life story provides an intimate glimpse into the life of a musician who dedicated his life to creating beautiful music and left an indelible mark on the world.
When Paul McCartney came out to the media to admire the Beach Boys, saying that God Only Knows was his favorite song of all time. This was a direct salute to both, Brian for his wonderful writing of this beautiful song made for Carl to sing and also a salute to Carl for a job very well done! Then when Pet Sounds came out we heard the audio of the Beatles freaking out about what will they now do to compete with that. They sounded pretty concerned about how they would ever be able to reach that high of a level of an album. Sgt Pepper's was good but had not accomplished- the complexity of sounds like Pet Sounds and frankly many other albums as well.
@webnatura Have seen numerous interviews with Paul over the years, talking about how Brian has influenced him, and how much he admires the song God Only Knows. But I haven't seen or read any interviews with Paul talking about how well Carl sang God Only Knows, or what Paul thought of Carl and the other Beach Boys, both as singers and musicians. Maybe he wants to keep his opinions about the group as a whole to himself. Have read that when Mike, about 10 - 15 years ago, started claiming that he helped Paul write Back In The USSR, Paul issued a statement saying that was not correct, but then he left it at that.
@@robertzastrow4648 I have often thought that. Paul has never mentioned Carl's vocal on God Only Knows, which, to me, is tremendous. Neither did George Martin in that video where he visits Brian in the studio and remixes the song. That bugs me.
I knew The Beach Boys. I was a little girl when my brother Mark played drums for them in Feb 1963. Carl was a frequent visitor to our house. My favorite song he did was “Heaven” I know I will see him there one day…
Despite being the youngest member of The Beach Boys, Carl Wilson emerged as a leader of the group and played a critical role in shaping its sound and direction.
He also added vocals to a couple of Tom Petty songs - Hung Up and Overdue, plus Honeybee. He really was the glue that held the band together all of those years. Once he died, it was all over for the band. It became Brian and AL doing their own things, and Love and Johnston doing the nostalgia tribute band.
I had the pleasure of seeing Carl perform with the Beach Boys on many occasions. He truly was the star of those 80s/90s concerts. between his vocals and musical prowess, he commanded the stage. Even towards the end of his life, he was a consummate professional. While weakened from chemo and radiation, Carl would petform sitting on a stool. But during the encore, he would rally and carry his heavy Rickenbocker and join the "Beach Boy Shuffle" during Barbara-Ann. Other than the 50th anniversary tour, I haven't been to a Beach Boys show since his passing. Without a Wilson on the stage, especially Carl, it truly isn't a Beach Boy concert.
I love The Beach Boys from the earlier day on the Ed Sullivan show to their later work. I especially like Carl Wilson for his contributions to the band and his awesome angelic good looks! I was so sad when I learned that he had died, and of lung cancer no less. Rest In Peace Carl Wilson!
I was at my first concert with the Beach Boys at Alexandria Roller Rink in '64 or '65. I was the underage friend that tagged along with older teens. We located them at the Olde Colony Motor Inn. The girls in this group were chasing the older players. Closest to my age was Carl. After the show I followed the other teens back to the model where i informally talked to Carl. That became more a thrill as time went on. Only lasted about 10 minutes, but i played it out over time. He became my fave BB.
My first rock concert was the Beach Boys, Napa County Fair, August, 1983. Dennis was the best outlandish clown and stole the show...he died that following December.
Carl did The Beach Boys tour the last summer of his life, never missing a show even if he was traveling via ambulance. When I saw The Beach Boys perform at halftime during the Superbowl and he was conspicuously absent, I knew he was dying.
@@HistoryandNostalgiaChannelfor those who fell in love with the BB in the 80's, it would be incredible for someone to do an indepth biography about Carl! Clips of performances and interviews. More about his family and all times with the brothers.
My favorite Carl Wilson song would have to be "If I Could Talk To Love" from his Solo Album "Youngblood"; followed closely by his lead on "God Only Knows"- that song is sheer perfection!
IMO, Carl never got the credit he deserved as a lead guitarist. For example, his intro and ending on Johnny B Goode in the Beach Boys Concert album 1964... he really gave that Fender Jaguar a workout on that song. I always wondered if he played the guitar instrumentals himself on the Surfin' USA album, or if was a session guitarist. Also, who played the lead guitar solo in the middle break of I Get Around. So Sad he passed away at such a young age.
my favorites are Wouldnt it be Nice ,God Only Knows,I can Hear Music,and his solo pieces Hold Me and Heaven and the song not really Known called I wish for you written near his death
As talented as he was, he was actually underused and his talent suppressed by staying in the group instead of going solo or joining Dennis to form another band during the 70’s. He was easily the 2nd most important member of the group.
David Marks never sung on the Beach Boys song when he was in the band. The other vocal on the Beach Boys cover of Summertime Blues was Nick Venet ( producer for Capitol Records and the person who signed them). Also All Dressed Up for School was not released at the time, and only came out as a bonus track in the late 80's. On a side notes, I'd love to know more about the new age religion Carl subscribed too

He wasn't the youngest, Dennis was.
@@chevyguy6961Carl was the youngest. Look it up.
@@chevyguy6961 Yes, he was the youngest of the Wilson boys, born in Dec. Of '46. Maybe of the whole group.
He also added vocals to a couple of Tom Petty songs - Hung Up and Overdue, plus Honeybee. He really was the glue that held the band together all of those years. Once he died, it was all over for the band. It became Brian and AL doing their own things, and Love and Johnston doing the nostalgia tribute band.
RIP Carl Wilson
Darlin is my favorite Carl Wilson Beach Boy song
RIP Carl Wilson
I had the pleasure of seeing Carl perform with the Beach Boys on many occasions. He truly was the star of those 80s/90s concerts. between his vocals and musical prowess, he commanded the stage. Even towards the end of his life, he was a consummate professional. While weakened from chemo and radiation, Carl would petform sitting on a stool. But during the encore, he would rally and carry his heavy Rickenbocker and join the "Beach Boy Shuffle" during Barbara-Ann.
Other than the 50th anniversary tour, I haven't been to a Beach Boys show since his passing. Without a Wilson on the stage, especially Carl, it truly isn't a Beach Boy concert.
RIP Carl Wilson 🙏
Thank you for a great video very interesting and detailed
Glad you enjoyed it. RIP Carl Wilson
I love The Beach Boys from the earlier day on the Ed Sullivan show to their later work. I especially like Carl Wilson for his contributions to the band and his awesome angelic good looks! I was so sad when I learned that he had died, and of lung cancer no less. Rest In Peace Carl Wilson!
Yes, a very sad loss indeed. RIP Carl Wilson
I loved that Song called Trader he sang on the beachboys album called Holland.
RIP Carl Wilson
To answer your question, Long Promised Road is my favourite. Thanks for the post.
RIP to the great Carl Wilson
Angelic voice!
Yes, amazing. RIP Carl Wilson
Carl inspired me to take up the guitar. Dennis influenced my brother on drums. 😎
RIP Carl & Dennis Wilson
Best voice
RIP Carl Wilson🙏
I was at my first concert with the Beach Boys at Alexandria Roller Rink in '64 or '65. I was the underage friend that tagged along with older teens. We located them at the Olde Colony Motor Inn. The girls in this group were chasing the older players. Closest to my age was Carl. After the show I followed the other teens back to the model where i informally talked to Carl. That became more a thrill as time went on. Only lasted about 10 minutes, but i played it out over time. He became my fave BB.
RIP Carl Wilson 🙏
Love I can hear music 🎶 ❤
RIP Carl Wilson
My first rock concert was the Beach Boys, Napa County Fair, August, 1983. Dennis was the best outlandish clown and stole the show...he died that following December.
RIP Carl Wilson
God Only Knows will always be my favorite!
Stunning song. RIP Carl Wilson
"Heaven" is all the better for Carl
That voice! RIP Carl Wilson
Carl did The Beach Boys tour the last summer of his life, never missing a show even if he was traveling via ambulance. When I saw The Beach Boys perform at halftime during the Superbowl and he was conspicuously absent, I knew he was dying.
RIP Carl Wilson
@@HistoryandNostalgiaChannelfor those who fell in love with the BB in the 80's, it would be incredible for someone to do an indepth biography about Carl! Clips of performances and interviews. More about his family and all times with the brothers.
"Wild Honey" has a special place in my heart.
Yes, lovely song indeed. RIP Carl Wilson
My favorite Carl Wilson song would have to be "If I Could Talk To Love" from his Solo Album "Youngblood"; followed closely by his lead on "God Only Knows"- that song is sheer perfection!
RIP Carl Wilson
I listen to darlen every single day

veeerrrrry best of beach boys EVER.
Yes, two great choices there... RIP Carl Wilson
I can't listen to Beautiful songs like Good Vibrations or God Only Knows or Kokomo now because it's missing Carl's voice
RIP Carl Wilson
IMO, Carl never got the credit he deserved as a lead guitarist. For example, his intro and ending on Johnny B Goode in the Beach Boys Concert album 1964... he really gave that Fender Jaguar a workout on that song. I always wondered if he played the guitar instrumentals himself on the Surfin' USA album, or if was a session guitarist. Also, who played the lead guitar solo in the middle break of I Get Around. So Sad he passed away at such a young age.
RIP Carl Wilson
I miss Carl voice more than I miss being 13
RIP Carl Wilson
I can hear music is my favorite by Carl W
Excellent song! RIP Carl
my favorites are Wouldnt it be Nice ,God Only Knows,I can Hear Music,and his solo pieces Hold Me and Heaven and the song not really Known called I wish for you written near his death
RIP Carl Wilson
Carl sang lead on "God only knows".
Yes he did, and what a song... RIP Carl Wilson
Can’t forget one of my favorites “Darlin’
His versatility was amazing and brilliant.
Darlin!
RIP Carl Wilson
Love Carl
RIP Carl Wilson
As talented as he was, he was actually underused and his talent suppressed by staying in the group instead of going solo or joining Dennis to form another band during the 70’s. He was easily the 2nd most important member of the group.
RiP Carl Wilson
Yes, I used to think he and Dennis should have split off and form a Wilson Bros Band.
I Can Hear Music
Superb song! RIP Carl Wilson
David Marks never sung on the Beach Boys song when he was in the band. The other vocal on the Beach Boys cover of Summertime Blues was Nick Venet ( producer for Capitol Records and the person who signed them). Also All Dressed Up for School was not released at the time, and only came out as a bonus track in the late 80's.
On a side notes, I'd love to know more about the new age religion Carl subscribed too
RIP Carl Wilson
Me too! I have tried to find out more.
Carl,la voce di Dio
RIP Carl Wilson

God Only Knows
Epic song sung beautifully by Carl. RIP Carl Wilson
Despite being born into a musical family, Carl Wilson had to work hard to hone his skills and emerge as a premier guitarist in the 1960s.
RIP Carl Wilson
The Great Carl was "the beach boys"
RIP Carl Wilson
God only knows
