Carl had the voice of an angel. Still sad to this day about his passing. One time in about 1983 or 1984 I had tickets to see The Beach Boys at The Garden Stat Arts Center. Well, show time came, and Carl walked out on stage with an acoustic guitar, and told the crowd that the rest of the band was stuck in an airplane circling over New Jersey. He went on to do an entire concert, solo - and no one regretted it - it was awesome!
I love the response he gave when his father was mentioned, speaking positively and highly of an extremely imperfect and unpleasant yet important part of his career. If it would’ve been Brian or especially Dennis they probably would’ve taken it a different direction (that would’ve gotten uncomfortable real quick.) but Carl (who I’m pretty sure was beaten the least.) took it very professionally and only said the positives. We need more Carl Wilsons people.
Imo Carl was just as important as Brian in terms of the Beach Boys musical greatness and success. Without those 2 the Beach Boys never would've been as great as they were.
Except for some of the 1978 Australian shows when Carl unfortunately mixed alcohol with prescription drugs and embarrassed himself. He actually made Brian and Dennis look stable by comparison.
Wow, What a beautiful person Carl is, he is so soft spoken and down to earth man!! He is such a sweetheart, gentle and kind, love his smile at the end, he is full of love, he has got love in his heart : ) ~ RIP Carl ~ Love your songs ~ Miss you!! xx
That was a superb performance of God. Only Knows in this video. His vocal chords had to be washed by the rising sun coated with honey when he was born.
They don't interview like they used to. They would ask questions and let the person talk at whatever length was necessary to get out what needed to be said. I miss that.
That was pretty cool to watch . Most of this ( except the interview ) is on the Good Vibrations DVD . I really love Carl's smile at the end of the video . R.I.P. Carl Dean Wilson You are so missed !!!!!
Carl Wilson is or has to be the most angelic person to walk this earth in the last 300 years. So much respect for that guy and his music. RIP Carl. I went to your grave in 2011 (LA), you called out to us, my dad heard it with his 3rd eye, thats how we found ur spot. Were the Ladykillers. :)
It sucks watching your favorite bands fall apart over time and having members pass away. The beatles, beach boys, and bee gees (among others) have all been heartbreaking to see weather away over time. Such is life though.
The current Beach Boy reunion is a joy and fantastic news for all Beach Boys - but they are never, ever, going to have the soul, heart or impeccable style, nor the gentleness and gracefulness that you brought to the band. We miss you Carl.
Cool video. Is that a Gibson or Epiphone 12 string guitar in the "God Only Knows" performance? It looks really cool whatever model it is and of course that's one of the greatest songs ever written!
Wolfman Jack, and Carl. This video is AWESOME. I've been looking for the SNL skit, getting Brian to the beach. It is here. Of all the singers I miss, Carl is at the top of the list. My only consolation, is that Carl and Dennis are playing for a higher audience.. steve
That's a fun bit -- the C.H.P. & Brian Wilson! Brian just had the vibe about good 'ol coastal California! As a CA native -- I'm damn proud of him & his band. They made some terrific memories! Maybe it was the sun, sand, women, the gift of youth .......... or the relentless need to make cool music amidst the joys of life by the Pacific Ocean. God only knows indeed! Peace & Love, Cav = Univ. of San Diego, CA Class of 1980 & member of their Surf Club. *
First off, Carl Wilson is the best. Voice like an angel and gone way too soon. That bit with John and Dan getting Brian out of bed to go surfing had me laughing out loud! So glad I happened upon this video. Thanks to UA-cam.
Not only was he a good singer but a good guitarist as well. He was an all around talented musician. He is sorely missed by millions! By the way Carl, MAY GOD REST YOUR SOUL! 😢 😮
YOU GOT THE WOLFMAAAN JACK SHOW! WHO IS THIS ON THE WOLFMAN TELEPHONE?! Diane. How ya doin, Diane? Oh boy, I love you, Wolfman! XERB! Suuupeeer gollldeeeen
@MrNotyag Brian took Four Freshman chord structure, Chuck Berry Rock n Roll, and Dennis Wilsons love of surfing. Jan and Dean were pretty much simultanius. Brian even wrote "Surf City" for them for their first #1 hit. Surfin USA was essentially stolen from "Sweet Little Sixteen" by CHuck Berry, who, after a lawsuit, has songwriting credit.
Carl was in the process of getting healthy during this time. He was going through a divorce and experiencing a lot of debilitating back pain, both which caused him to gain a lot of weight and self-medicate. He quit the "hard drugs" (his wording, and rumored to be heroin) and lost a lot of weight in short order. If you look at him in photos from less than two years later, in 1980, the difference in his physical appearance is astounding. He looks so much better. In some ways, Carl and Dennis were experiencing the same sort of struggles as Brian during that time. I hate to be so cynical, but in some ways I think that because Brian was the group's cash cow, it was all hands on deck to save Brian, but Carl and Dennis were left to fend for themselves. Dennis was too far gone to save himself, and too hyperactive and addicted to spend any length of time in rehab. Carl enlisted the help of some good friends for his own rehabilitation, and fortuntately it worked.
Right. Here . Carl was being the kind and forgiving guy he really was. Harder for Brian because Murray beat him a lot more and made him deaf in one ear.
Ok why the hell didnt Carl just simply have a lung removed, and the tumor from his brain removed by surgery from and be done with it, with all the money he had,why the kemo? he would have lived!

There was a 2 record set of Glen Campbell at GSAC then the 4 Seasons
Boy are you lucky to have seen Carl play like that !!! He was the best!!!
What an awesome story. Is there video out there? or even just audio?
@@mbrenner3629 Not that I know of - I wish there was!
I would love to have seen that!
Carl’s voice sends chills down my spine. LUVED Carl!
Their greatest songs almost always featured Carl's beautiful voice. A soulful man.
My heart melts each time I look at Carl. What a beautiful human being.
( and the freaking hottest singer, guitarist in the history of music.)
Me too
His son Justyn is a friend of mine and a great person.
Prog Metal Programme Metal - How is his mum? ( Annie)
How is he doing? Carl Wilson is a true inspiration. A true man of God
Tell him “ hello” from me!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💗 💕 ❤️
EWW. CHILDREN OF FAMOUS PEOPLE ARE HORRIBLE PEOPLE.
Did Carl finally leave that awful cult and come to know Jesus as his Lord and Savior????
Carl definitely had the best lead singer voice of the Beach Boys. RIP
I love the response he gave when his father was mentioned, speaking positively and highly of an extremely imperfect and unpleasant yet important part of his career.
If it would’ve been Brian or especially Dennis they probably would’ve taken it a different direction (that would’ve gotten uncomfortable real quick.) but Carl (who I’m pretty sure was beaten the least.) took it very professionally and only said the positives.

Imo Carl was just as important as Brian in terms of the Beach Boys musical greatness and success. Without those 2 the Beach Boys never would've been as great as they were.
what a lovely man and a brilliant voice
in every live performance, Carl was always in key. Amazing dude.
Except for some of the 1978 Australian shows when Carl unfortunately mixed alcohol with prescription drugs and embarrassed himself. He actually made Brian and Dennis look stable by comparison.
Carl's word of the day....."beautiful." Love and miss you, Carl.
Every time he was stoned
What a sweet interview.
He sounds a genuinely decent human being very sweet. I have never heard anything negative about him
I think he sounds stoned
Wow, What a beautiful person Carl is, he is so soft spoken and down to earth man!! He is such a sweetheart, gentle and kind, love his smile at the end, he is full of love, he has got love in his heart : ) ~ RIP Carl ~ Love your songs ~ Miss you!! xx
Only the good die young....rip Carl
That was a superb performance of God. Only Knows in this video. His vocal chords had to be washed by the rising sun coated with honey when he was born.
Really??? I didn’t like it nearly as well as many other live versions
Carl Dean Wilson. Forever. 💗 💕 ❤️
God bless Carl....and Dennis too of course! @=_
Carl's in denial re his father here....hence repeating "beautiful"...
But still a beautiful voice, a beautiful person...
- wonder if he knows how "beautiful" he was. i sure hope he was told alot while he was here.
Its amazing how he didn't have anything bad to say about anything, especially Murry. What a great person. I would have loved to meet him.
Exactly, NV. The most important thing. The sign of a good man.
Maybe with him being the baby, Murry's viciousness was not so vicious?
He was so kind he could never speak ill of anyone.
They don't interview like they used to. They would ask questions and let the person talk at whatever length was necessary to get out what needed to be said. I miss that.
That was pretty cool to watch . Most of this ( except the interview ) is on the Good Vibrations DVD .
I really love Carl's smile at the end of the video .
R.I.P. Carl Dean Wilson
You are so missed !!!!!
What a beautiful person CARL WILSON was. Love hearing him speak 🗣. We miss him very much.
Carl Wilson is or has to be the most angelic person to walk this earth in the last 300 years. So much respect for that guy and his music. RIP Carl. I went to your grave in 2011 (LA), you called out to us, my dad heard it with his 3rd eye, thats how we found ur spot. Were the Ladykillers. :)
seriously? i mean the 3rd eye.. why did he called you,did you know him personally? i would like to know more
It sucks watching your favorite bands fall apart over time and having members pass away. The beatles, beach boys, and bee gees (among others) have all been heartbreaking to see weather away over time. Such is life though.
We take so much for granted. I was lucky enough to see them in concert before Carl passed....
carl is magic and blue and purple is magical!
Carl was amazing. The beach boys....a band that was amazing and had the potential to make it even bigger than they were.
Why is Carl wearing an astronaut suit in the Wolfman Jack interview?
80s
Nope. 70s.
That smile!........Nice guy...PERIOD!.......
The current Beach Boy reunion is a joy and fantastic news for all Beach Boys - but they are never, ever, going to have the soul, heart or impeccable style, nor the gentleness and gracefulness that you brought to the band. We miss you Carl.
Carl was the man!
We love you too Carl..I notice no mention of that mastermind {Mike love} as he would have people to think.
AWESOME MAN. LOVE LIVE THE WILSON BROTHERS
carl had the voice of an angel, and is with the angels now
People always say none of this would have happened without Brian. I say none of this would have happened without Carl
I totally agree. Carl was so talented, sincere and beautiful
Cool video. Is that a Gibson or Epiphone 12 string guitar in the "God Only Knows" performance? It looks really cool whatever model it is and of course that's one of the greatest songs ever written!
Its a Epiphone. Later Carl had a Gibson neck put on it when it needed repair.
I miss his voice and his demeanor. The world is a lesser place without him
Wolfman Jack, and Carl. This video is AWESOME.
I've been looking for the SNL skit, getting Brian to
the beach. It is here.
Of all the singers I miss, Carl is at the top of the
list. My only consolation, is that Carl and Dennis
are playing for a higher audience..
steve
Only Carl could, quite sincerely, describe their sadist father as “beautiful “ and “loving.”
First, someone should have kept Carl away from the shiny jacket cupboard. Second, from 0:11 he just melts my heart.
LOL!
That was cutting edge apparel at the roller disco.
That's a fun bit -- the C.H.P. & Brian Wilson! Brian just had the vibe about good 'ol coastal California! As a CA native -- I'm damn proud of him & his band. They made some terrific memories!

It's a pity Carl Wilson didn't replace Mike love as lead Singer, Mike love ruined the beachboys.
CARL DEAN WILSON.
did he say barry instead of murry??? Love Carl such a beautiful soul. Much loved and missed.
What a Classic Carl Wilson and Wolfman Jack. Priceless !!
First off, Carl Wilson is the best. Voice like an angel and gone way too soon. That bit with John and Dan getting Brian out of bed to go surfing had me laughing out loud! So glad I happened upon this video. Thanks to UA-cam.
Classic "SNL" skit!

@sqweezel Carl gave a lot! The Wilson bothers were the Beach Boys, with the various other associations.
miss him
What a voice!!! Perfect pitch and such a range. I never grow tired of The Beach Boys music. Peace be with you Carl.
Thanks for posting.
3:16 GOD ONLY KNOWS
Not only was he a good singer but a good guitarist as well. He was an all around talented musician. He is sorely missed by millions! By the way Carl, MAY GOD REST YOUR SOUL! 😢 😮
Responding on 12-21, Carl's birthday.
God that interviewer is scary looking, the interviewee however is not-he's lovely!
Helen25243 that’s freakin Wolfman Jack, yo!!!!
I remember being at an Internet I tro course and one of.the first things I found was Carl had passed the day before. I was really shocked.
GAWD, I miss the WOLFMAN!!!!!!!
Carl was so kind he could never say anything negative about anyone, not even his cruel tyrant of a father.
@spacepatrolman this video was not about belushi. The subject was carl wilson so i don't know why you had to comment if it wasn't about carl.
Such a flawless voice..
What yer was this, please?????
What Carl is saying here about his father ... shocking actually.
“Loving” is especially shocking
YOU GOT THE WOLFMAAAN JACK SHOW!
WHO IS THIS ON THE WOLFMAN TELEPHONE?!
Diane.
How ya doin, Diane?
Oh boy, I love you, Wolfman!
XERB! Suuupeeer gollldeeeen
(from American Graffiti): "Pick up the phone, dummy!"
@pmoyer50 oh my god i love how you described that:)
Lucky dogs

14 October 2022, and cool outside blowin' in from my window, but still finding time for Carl on a Friday Night.
ON OH
Carl wasn't looking too healthy here. What year was it?
Dan O 1978

Well the transformation was remarkable!
So is Carl God?
Yes
'' Here is your wave '' say policeman ... oh my
Dang, Carl is so mellow.
Wonderful video!!!! All good.
He had a great smile 😀
al reportero se le abre el ojo y eso genera cierto miedo
Any similarity between Carl Wilson and Juaquin Pheonix umm
What's bullshit?
He s still positive about his dad, because othere stories tell that his father a real tiran?????
but Carl and Brian have a big difference of opinion on their dad it seems
Right. Here . Carl was being the kind and forgiving guy he really was. Harder for Brian because Murray beat him a lot more and made him deaf in one ear.
Carl was a good PR person, and it only benefitted the band (and the family) to speak positively of Murry.
Ok why the hell didnt Carl just simply have a lung removed, and the tumor from his brain removed by surgery from and be done with it, with all the money he had,why the kemo? he would have lived!
Like I said to you before, relimes..you are one stupid dipshit.
Sometimes it is hard to believe he's not with us.. RIP Love 💕
