I can see why he was a regular viewer of "Mister Rogers Neighborhood" during his bedroom era. When he was going through depression, he needed a TV friend to tell him he was special. As someone on the Autism spectrum, the comforting voice of Fred McFeely Rogers was great therapy for me as well
I just started watching but yeah I knew this guy was a dog, the things he did were criminal and also betrayed his sons over and over again, ironically though it was Murray's interest in music that probably spurred the boys to write and learn.

Can’t wait to watch this, i absolutely love Brians music and the beach boys, especially their deep cuts, early 70s very late 60s stuff. Even the mid 70s stuff rocked. thanks for the content!
Your documentary immediately intrigued me from the beginning. Your displaying of truly obscure pictures and films was really appreciated by me. I thought I'd seen much of the rarer visual materials, but you unlocked so much that To hadn't seen. Seeing them in their very early days, when they were just a small local band, operating from Hawthorne, playing at school assemblies, or at local shopping malls (never imagining their nation-wide, let alone world-wide) fame, is always fascinating. So thank you. Yours is probably the best documentary I've seen.
As a BB Fan and interested in the story of the Group, I have viewed and listened to and read about the life of the group. I found this Documentary to be the most moving and tragic of all. It portrays the Group in with honesty, warts and all. I knew of the various turmoil in the life of Brian and the Boys, but came away more informed and astounded at the history of the Group from a personal perspective. The heartache, the tragedy, the failures the deaths and the accomplishments. At 71, they were a huge part of my life in music., following their rollercoaster ride. The many disappointments and the times when musical masterpieces were achieved. I came to dread a new release from either the band or the boys individually, as often it was so disappointing, but at times, they could really achieve something special. I think their career seemed to be a constant WHAT IF in respect to music that may have been had Brian not crashed in 68 after PET SOUNDS, or Dennis not destroyed himself as did CARL with declining health through drugs and alcohol, both talented performers and writers. Whatever, they leave some music that will live forever.
The shift in key of "Caroline, No" was achieved by pitching up the tape speed on the tape machine recorder- Murray told him it'd make it sound "sweeter". Brian was reluctant at first but eventually agreed.
There's only one thing I would have added to your presentation. The fact that Jan and Dean co-wrote surf City with brian. He didn't think it was going to be a hit and it was the actual first number one hit from Brian Wilson as co-writer I just found that out a little while ago myself. I had no idea either. There's just so much to know.
I've never watched anything on Brian before, eventhough I've heard he's had problems. Seems like he was basically screwed from the get go, his father was a nightmare. It's sad that he was taken advantage of his whole life. Never been into the Beach Boys much, but this makes me wanna learn a bit more of Brian's work. This is another fantastic video, I loved the Brian Jones and now this. I'll definitely have to check out more videos.
@@TeaAndBunsMC just listened to it, it sure was quite the experience. Like a roller-coaster, but it's stuck in my head and makes me wanna check the whole album out now. I'm not a BB fan either, I know most of their hits and that's it. Thanks for the recommendation. 👍
Once you realize that Brian has like 99.8% odds of being autistic everything about him makes sense. Nobody knew what that was, let alone how to deal with it so he got taken advantage of. He being abused as a kid really didn't help. He always had kind of a childlike manner about him. "The Beach Boys Love You" album shows that type of genius can go fully off the rails too.
In 1979 Brian bought my childhood home, very close to Dennis’s old house that the Manson family invaded, he lived there for part of the Landy years, and somehow the house was sold to Landy for $10,000, despite being worth in the mid to high six figures at the time. So many people in his life solely wanted to take advantage of his genius, Murray, asshat Mike Love, Landy.
He also didn’t mention the weirdness of Murray wanting Brian to sound younger, and they just sped the tape up, I’m guessing from C to Db. I did a cover of Caroline, No with an acoustic guitar and a Rhodes patch, just to admire the beauty of the composition. I love that particular track a lot, because of its mood and the idea of loss.
There are some interesting, if somewhat sensationalized, stories here. Definitely some inaccuracies, but overall an entertaining watch. Some cool clips and pictures I hadn't seen before.
Brian and Gary Usher were best friends and wrote and recorded a lot of great stuff together. Murray felt threatend by Gary and tried to shut him out. Still, Brian and Gary were friends for life.
Murray's passing from a major heart attack back in 1973 which was right about the time I graduated from high school was of no great loss to the world as far as I'm concerned!. 😢😮
Thoughts of Judy Garland having said to Mickey Deans that when Louis B. Mayer (at MGM) died, people were checking the coffin to make sure the man was dead!
What a great bio! I wish someone with your storytelling skills would take on the bio of Melanie. The Melanie Safka story has never been told. Thank you for this video, it is a great look at a great band. ❤
I only got a few minutes into your video and it's already better than other guys video I sent you. Don't get me wrong. He's very amusing. But you really put the footwork into this. It's hard to dig into these controversial issues. It seems that you found the most credible information you could possibly find out there and you really work hard at doing this. I hope you make enough money on your patreon support. Seriously, if I wasn't going blind and my wife didn't have such horrible seizures and and strokes and I had any money to throw your way man that you certainly deserve it done I'm really proud to know that there are a few fantastic people out there who are that dedicated to explaining the history of music.
Sounds like a great documentary but that constant flashing background image is triggering a migraine. Hopefully there's another version available. If not I'll to listen with the monitor turned off :(
Sorry about that. I corrected it for the latter videos, but unfortunately i cant do anything about this one. I was thinking of making a remaster of this documentary with loads more information and what not. But that'll be in the future.
What I don’t like about The Beach Boys touring band is that they would agree with whatever the public opinion was. As it happened, these albums became World renowned. Therefore their opinion is that Brain is a genius and they’re happy to be a part of any documentaries concerning them. However, in an alternate reality where say the albums had been rejected by the public they’d be the first ones to agree lol. It’s not so much disloyalty as it is dishonesty. But I suppose it’s a little of both. This excludes Denise ofc, and I’ll always have a soft spot of Carl.
i feel macca and brian have journeyed the same creative, spiritual path fraught with it's share of grief and triumphs. they are only a few days apart in age.
@@farrellmcnulty909 True. I just remember a story I’ve heard a few times, about how Brian and a friends were driving home from a burger joint in the middle of the night, and it was Strawberry or Penny, that made him pull over to the side of the road to listen. And he wound up saying, “they did it. They did it” I think he did believe that he couldn’t beat that. In combination with the drugs and mental health problems, I believe the Beatles work of Peppers was something he’d really liked to have done, and I’m guessing it crushed his hopes. I’m just speculating anyway. I’m a big fan of Brian’s songwriting.
He wanted his wife to grow vegetables and sell them through the kitchen window....lol .. maybe the first California Farmers market. He really was ahead of his time.
@@farrellmcnulty909 Yes, I have! The scene where he throws away the matzo ball soup Melinda ordered really got to me. I'm guessing it had too much salt, because my mum was advised to go easy on the salt in regard to reducing her high blood pressure.
Amazing work as always, thank you 🙏🏻 But I have to say the shimmering/flashing light in the background of the amps is horribly distracting & off putting. I had to just listen to this 1. Once again, nice work.
Mike Love; a legend in his own mind, and a notorious, egomaniacal poon-hound... I think if Brian had cut Mike and Murray out of his life early on he wouldn't have been in such a dark/ destructive mental state. With that, the BB's would've produced even more incredible art. Brian is truly one of a kind.
From a flat Earth perspective, we can appreciate the remarkable creative output of individuals like Brian Wilson, while also acknowledging the challenges they face. It serves as a reminder that the human mind is a complex and multifaceted entity,
I completely disagree with the notion that Brian Wilson looked better after losing so much weight. Brian was never meant to be skinny; even in the early 1960s, he had a naturally stocky, slightly chubby build-and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. It was part of who he was, and it suited him perfectly. The drastic weight loss people sometimes praise wasn’t the result of a healthy lifestyle or personal choice-it was the outcome of outright abuse. Brian was being starved, plain and simple. This wasn’t about better living or self-improvement; it was a form of control, manipulation, and torture that wreaked havoc on his body and mind. Praising his appearance during that time ignores the context and the suffering he endured. It reduces a complex and painful chapter of his life to superficial judgments about his body. Brian Wilson is a creative genius, a man whose art has touched millions, and he deserves to be celebrated for his talent and resilience-not for the way he looked during a period of profound mistreatment.
Have you ever seen the Bozo punching balloon, that you'd punch and it would go down. But always bounced back up, ready for another punch? Did people know about this then? Was this revealed later after the success of the young men? How to fight back without embracing violence. Learning to respect your own individual needs, Amen.
I'm half-an-hour in, and this is already my favourite Brian documentary!
God knows the length of our lives. That's why he is the age he is. Just like his brothers lived the length of their lives.
I can see why he was a regular viewer of "Mister Rogers Neighborhood" during his bedroom era. When he was going through depression, he needed a TV friend to tell him he was special. As someone on the Autism spectrum, the comforting voice of Fred McFeely Rogers was great therapy for me as well
broke brain
I’m autistic too
Unless you’re severely autistic…like non verbal…you’re just a slow learner
Mr. Rogers was wonderful for me after decades of abuse.❤
If anyone deserves the FATHER FROM HELL of the year AWARD it's Murray Wilson! 😢😮
He was such a pig.
I just started watching but yeah I knew this guy was a dog, the things he did were criminal and also betrayed his sons over and over again, ironically though it was Murray's interest in music that probably spurred the boys to write and learn.
Absolutely Michael Brian’s Dad was a Narcissist
@@jimbanda I'd seen the Love & Mercy film and thought of Murry as a bad father.
I don't understand how Mike and Brian's brothers could look at what Brian was doing without complete awe and admiration for his talent.
They all were in complete awe and admiration
@paulyplatinum127 Dennis and Carl it seems were. Mike seems to think he deserves more credit for the beach boys success than Brian, despite using him and his creations to achieve that success.

It’s actually really impressive. Brian is still alive and has managed to still preform later in his life.
I don't know if it's been proven, but I hear he has dementia now.
I hate to say it but I don't think he has that long. His dementia is getting worse and he looks pretty bad. I'm steeling myself for his departure.
Excellent documentary! It covers all of the important history with the exception of 2004 Brian Wilson Presents Smile.
A begrudgingly honest account of a musical genius and the history of The Beach Boys. Depressing and important.
How on earth does this guy have less than 10,000 subscribers? I've been binging these docs for days!
Can’t wait to watch this, i absolutely love Brians music and the beach boys, especially their deep cuts, early 70s very late 60s stuff. Even the mid 70s stuff rocked. thanks for the content!

He appears to overlook Mike Love’s antics and abuse over the years as well.
Brian and Gary Usher were best friends and wrote and recorded a lot of great stuff together. Murray felt threatend by Gary and tried to shut him out. Still, Brian and Gary were friends for life.
Just a slight correction: at 23:05, that is a photo of Van Dyke Parks, not Lorren Daro. I'm sure someone else has probably noticed this already.
One correction. Melinda and Brian married on Marilyn Wilson’s birthday. Because Brian said that way he would always remember their anniversary date.
Melinda, who died in Jan. 2024, played a significant role in helping Brian establish himself as a solo artist.
Great documentary. The only bad thing was the flashing background made me feel like I might have a seizure. 😊
Brilliant documentary 👏🏻

Dude based on my understanding David Marks was prior to Al Jardine returning he was on 5 first albums
That's a good one around 24' 25" "Bruce Johnson replaced Glen MATLOCK as keyboardist" 😂😂
And then Sid replaced Bruce
Yes what the hell….

This almost seems like ai
same, especially pre smile@@impalaman9707
Awe shoot I forgot you guys were all beach boys experts :(
Fking corny asf
Dennis Wilson and Keith Moon would have hit it off to a tee! 😢 😮
Amazing job🎉🎉
A full Dennis Wilson video?
The Beach Boys have a grand total of 4 songs I actually like.
BUT, I'm fascinated by their history.
I hadn't known that Dr. Eugene Landy had treated Richard Harris before Brian Wilson - I bet he was a right handful to deal with.
Landy had other well-known clients, including actress Maureen McCormick(who played Marcia on THE BRADY BUNCH).
Do you have reference for your affirmation about chilhood stories?
Amazing work!
Bruce replaced Glen Matlock?? Wasn’t Glen Matlock the bassist for the Sex Pistols? Is AI writing these videos?
Brian is awesome
My favourite musician of all time, what a genius, Jeff Lynne a close second. So sad I've never seen either the Beach Boys or ELO live.
Awesome!
God bless Brian. xoxo The Clarences
24:21 "Glen Matlock"???? Keyboard???? I don't think so.
Glen Campbell??

The Beach Pistols?

Oh my god the Beach Boys were absolutely fucking crazy.
You had to grow up in the sixties to know the pain amid prosperity.
What movie are all the clips from?
The Beach Boys an American family. its on youtube i think

Summer dreams is way better as a movie imo, but an American family is more detailed

If I were in Audrey's shoes I would have walked out of Murray's life A LONG TIME AGO! 😮
Understandable, but the boys needed someone stable in that household. Murry could have gotten remarried to someone more like himself.
