wow this was great so many facts and answers i didn't kno dennis drowned before it was said somethng told me because i am a sensitive i was shocked ty..
Though he’s been diagnosed with dementia, Brian’s presence in his California home, in the intermittent comfort of his children and grandchildren has been pleasant. I’m so glad!
Murry Wilson was a cruel and sadistic father who beat and tormented the brothers regularly as children. How Carl stayed sane (albeit a cruel end by cancer) I'll never know.
I'm one of three brothers myself, my dad was just about the same way with us, he made us do things we didn't want to do but he forced it on us, my dad had a gardening route and every weekend we had to help him as well as every school break, it was work, work and work, and once I got my own job, he resented it and tried every means to get me fired but luckily my supervisors told him off. And then once I got a better stable job, he pretty much left me alone but still harbored a lot of resentment.
@@briansam2524 Thats a toxic father. Parents shouldnt have full authority over their kods. It shpuld be split between the teachers, doctors, peers, police, and parents. Most parets either smother, coddle, abuse, or neglect.
Landy may have started out trying to help Brian but in a short time he was more like a dictator involved in every personal detail of Brian's life including finances, investments--he was a master manipulator. I am convinced he was totally negative, a corrupt bad man. Brian was lucky to survive him.
7/24/2023: Now age 81, Brian must have the strongest constitution in humanity. After abusing LSD, marijuana, tobacco, alcohol, food, sloth, hygiene, & God knows what else, he's survived many of his contemporaries, including his brothers.
Brian is a strict vegan that's why he's still with us just proves NOBODY can break Gods laws of nature and not suffer, i too am a strict vegan since 1985 i'm 73, i guess we all have to learn the hard way!
My very first concert was the Beach Boys. City Park in New Orleans, I was 12 years old. My mom would play their music especially on road trips to the Gulf Coast. It was 1986 Good Times with beach balls bouncing throughout the crowd. Good Vibrations was always my favorite. I can remember they used it for an old Sunkist commercial. Great memories!!
One of my favorite rock legends is when they gave Murray a fake sound board to shut him up. Sad how their lives fell apart, but they made beautiful music that will be around forever. With friends like Charlie Manson.....
Saw The Beach Boys September 21, 1964 in concert with Brian, Dennis, Carl, Mike, and Al onstage wearing red and white striped shirts. Played at the Civic Coliseum in Knoxville, TN. Fabulous performance!
In 1976, if you went to Las Vegas and placed a bet that Brian would be the last surviving Wilson brother, you would have eventually made a LOT of money.
Brian is a prime example of genius and madness often coexisting. Many people don’t realize how much pain drug addicts suffer. You’re not blowing pounds of coke or shooting suitcases of heroin because you’re happy with life…and no, money doesn’t solve those issues. In fact, it often appears to make them worse. Scott Weiland, Layne Staley, Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse…they all died rich and miserable…thankfully, Brian has managed to beat the odds and experience old age.
As Hunter S. Thompson said, "you can turn your back on a person, but you can not turn your back on a drug." So, I can understand the Love/ Dennis Wilson problems. Drugs and Alcohol have ruined many families and friendships.
@@Blinki18284 Exactly. Another gem was when he's talking about getting back on the road, he says he feels if he doesn't get his butt in gear and get on that stage & do his songs, he should quit the business. Interviewer: "When did you start to feel that? Brian: "Yesterday".
Great video. Very good narration. Dennis was such a tragic alcoholic. Wonder what made him so 😒 unhappy. Too bad he could not get the help rehab therapy ne needed. 😢😢😢
Dennis was a wild child from the beginning; it has been theorized he had undiagnosed ADHD. That, and the near constant abuse he suffered at the hands of his father made for a volatile personality. Most likely a genetic predisposition to alcoholism was a factor as well.
I think Dennis’ mental health was tipped into a spiral by his childhood trauma and exacerbated by the constant turmoil and political unrest within the band, add hard drugs and booze and an addictive personality on top of that and it’s not a recipe for a happy and stable outcome, very sadly. Dennis was a magnificent songwriter, at his best every bit the equal of his brothers. Pacific Ocean Blue is a glorious record that deserves more attention.
I lived a few miles from their childhood home where a plaque now stands. Grew up listening tonthem and attended their 50th Anniversary tour concert. Got to seentheir sound check as well. So glad that David got to be a part of it 😊
@@filmretrospective5334 I dreamed of living in LA when I was a teenager in the 1970s-80s but not anymore,alll the American cities are going to Hell now......I eventually went there for a week in 1992 and was very very disappointed and I could see it was already going downhill fast.
I saw the Beach Boys in 1974 or 75. Dennis Wilson was more a nuisance than anything else. He did not play the drums. He kept leaving the stage for minutes at a time. Every time he came back on stage he would randomly try harmonizing at different microphones before leaving the stage and going someplace. A total distraction.
But in fairness Dennis Wilson was no fool. There is a early 1970's beachboys concert in New York where he played his song from the Sunflower album. He also made solo album in the late 70's.
Dennis was an excellent songwriter, second in the group only to Brian. Perhaps more importantly, in the early days Dennis was the embodiment of everything the Beach Boys sang. He was the surfer, the car guy. He lived the life.
Actually The Beach Boys put out some fine songs from 1976 to 1980.Their 1976 album 15 Big Ones was a hit,their 1977 album Love You had a cool song Honking Down The Highway and their 1979 album LA Light album is fine.Then of course The Beach Boys in the mid or late 1980's they had another huge hit Kokomo.The Beach Boys also had a big tv special in 1976. The Beach Boys perfomances on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964,1965 and 1966 were outstanding.
@@sarah2.017 It's a mostly John Phillips and Terry Melcher song with the a few lines of the usual banal Mike Love lyrics - Surfin USA with islands instead of surfing beaches. The movie was a big hit and it pretty much drove the song.
Brian has said one of those mid 70’s albums is his favorite, The Beach Boys Love You maybe? Sorry, I forget which one. I also think their early 70’s albums are all good and under rated.
@@skooter6235 Also, the culture had changed and people were listening to other music and bands by that time. Doesn't mean their music wasn't great, it just wasn't as popular.
Don’t usually comment on videos but I’ve watched this at least 10 times lol. So informative but also kinda funny? Your deadpan delivery and some of the editing cracked me up. Especially during the parts talking about Murray. Idk if that was intentional but regardless, amazing video ! Subscribed.
When the brothers were growing up, whenever Murry got his paycheck, the whole family drove home singing "We're In The Money" and "Happy Days Are Here Again." 😊
They always mention Manson when they talk about The Beach Boys. In reality Manson only had real interaction with Dennis who was more of a drug friend of his. Dennis probably let Manson be around him because it was a flow of young girls.
Dennis introduced Manson to Tex Watson and also was a massive fan of Manson’s music trying hard to get him signed to Brother recording company .Also the song “ Cease to Exist “ by Charles Manson was added to the Beach Boys 20/20 album as “ Never learn not to love you “ and Manson not only didn’t get paid he wasn’t credited .
@johnmiller5679 Dennis and Manson were far closer than history portrays - In fact he was so obsessed with Manson that his publicist had to shut him up .
it was to trick him into agreeing being treated by Landy again, according to Rolling Stone in about 84 quoting Dennis' widow Shawn, Dennis would never have agreed to sign a document 'firing' Brian if he'd known what it was, they either faked his signature or he didn't know what he was signing.
Murray the father who really should never have become a father. So abusive. Wonder if he was abused by his father. A person filled with rage and anger. Too bad they did not have child protective services in those days. Lock him up
Very open minded of you. Considering you know nothing about his music. Did you consider that every one of his children were brilliant singers and song writers? Maybe they got it from him.
too right. nothing loveable about mr love as you can see when he tried to capture the beach boys' name for his own tour. al jardine stayed with brian and they had great success
Never a huge or even big Beach Boys fan, my musical tastes came from a older teen sister as I grew up in the 70's. She was a big Beatles, Beach Boys, Creedence, Jefferson Airplane type fan, and it would be all leftover 45's and albums that would lead me on. Later, a two year old brother would change those tastes to Zeppelin and Sabbath, or Deep Purple, but you get it. It was the surfing music that I just didn't dig. We were a Chicago family and maybe that was it, but either way I couldn't get Barbara Ann or I get Around type stuff. But when I came across Sloop John B, In My Room, Wouldn't It Be Nice, and most of all Don't worry Baby, God Only Knows ......... Man their ballads were beautiful. It was the Pet Sounds album that i found under my sisters dresser that I fell in love with, probably at 13 years old. For a short time I thought it was part of a double Sgt Peppers album. My sister had stuck pet sounds in with the Beatles work that had likely been done in part due to Pet Sounds. Anyway, I listened to the two albums over and over during that 13th summer of my life. Pet Sounds had been out for a decade by then, but if your are too young to get it, it would be hard to explain how you didn't hears a variety of music in the 70's, LOL, unless you had that deep access. To this day I put them at one and two in my list of greatest albums, but that's just my opinion. Hey, I fuckin' loved this little retro. I have watched all the stuff out on the turbulent live and careers of the band and the family (The Wilson's and the Manson's) and this was just so well put together and produced. Awesome job, bud. Murry Wilson would have been proud of you. I am now a subscriber.
Manson did not know where they all lived. He knew where Brian, Dennis and their mom Audree lived, but beyond that there's no evidence that he knew where the others lived.
I've followed them since a teen and now in my seventh decade. I and my wife had been to many concerts. AT EVERY ONE Mike LOVE was the perfect gentlemen, always interacting and acknowledging those in attendance, even signing off on album covers with a black marker. while performing. That was just his way. Not saying the others ignored the fans they did not. Everybody has a different vibe to them when performing. Mike Love was always KIND to the fans at any concert we attended, I believe he is a KIND SOUL. SO I am inclined to give him some slack. No one really knows what the other guy or gal is going through, meaning all of the stuff and crap, in that industry from say 1961 to the present. SO perhaps he made some people uneasy. SO WHAT. He's paid his dues.
Nice to read a positive report about Mike. I've been a fan for 50 years, and I know that Mike Love can be an arrogant a-hole at times, but I've argued for years that the hate against him simply isn't justified. Had it not been for his steadfast professionalism the band likely would have fallen apart after Brian's withdrawal and seclusion.
@@jakemitchell1671 Ditto I'm sure it's a tough life, despite all of the luxuries. You're life is not your own, unless you withdraw to some string of islands.. Even then i'd wager you'd be walking along the beach picking up a cocunut to enjoy, and some one comes running over to you asking for an autograph..that they intend to sell on line.. LOL LOL. Not for me..
it's absolutely crazy to think that there's another timeline where manson becomes a famous musician. makes me wonder how many people in the entertainment business have more incommon with manson behind the curtain than we think
It was a side effect of Murry hitting him in the ears when he was a child, violently. Brian went deaf in one ear, and began to favor speaking more on the side of his mouth, a common symptom of someone who is deaf in one ear. Being deaf in one ear is why Brian was not impressed with stereo.
No band has EVER reached the brilliance of the Beach Boys, not even the moptop 🐞 s. The only other band that carried that spirit respectably were the Ramones!
Wasn't Brian's brain fried from the drugs and alcohol *he* did, and the reason Landy intervened in the first place! Granted Landy got too close and was too controlling. Shouldn't he be given some credit for pulling Brian out of it....
Have to wonder if Brian's father did not contribute to his terrible mental health issues. His father sadly was jealous and competetive with brian. Also where was Brian's and Dennis s mother when the father was abusive Was she in the picture. And if she was. Was she complicit. No wonder why those boys were so messed up. Sad 😢😢😢😢
While I semi respect them, I’m just not into their sound. Overrated. Who’s that lead singer Mike Love anyway? Dude, you are bald; own it. Great 5 songs though. Rock on Amerika.
Brian, one of the true geniuses of rock music. Even the Beatles/George Martin couldn't fathom those vocal arrangements. The musical composition incredible, keeping in mind he was 20yrs old. It was all Brian. It's too bad they were a bunch of ego freak crazies. I always found the lyrical content meaningless and shallow.
The story of DW, is tragic. he was so talented, but ETOH & Drugs had such a hold on him, he would not---------could not--------stop., & get straight. --------Such a shame. -----MJL, 76 y/o
Carl was always the “straight” Beach Boy, because he never took any drugs or alcohol. He also was the glue that held the band together. We all admire him for that.
On the contrary, Carl had very serious problems with drugs, alcohol and tobacco. And like Brian, he also had a food addiction. He was able to overcome his most of his addictions with few relapses.
Unfortunately Other than Brian not much song writi mg talent in that band. After 1967 they did very little worth listening to for the past 40 years or so just living off playing the old hits. You watch them on stage now and it’s 3 long time members and about 17 guys really playing the songs.
Have you heard the albums ‘Friends’, ‘20/20’, ‘Sunflower’, ‘Surfs Up’? 😊. Pretty incredible stuff. & Dennis was an excellent songwriter…. U may have your opinion tho………
@@djangorama864And he also dismissed Wild Honey, So Tough, and Holland. The 1967-73 period is a rich vein of colourful material. Some consider this their best period. Others can't move past the surf and car songs and won't accept the great 67-73 period.
Jarred Leto, time to get fat and win an Oscar! Unless you want Pauly Shore to do it with The Life Of Richard Simmons. Maybe you could release it back to back like Barbie and tgat seriously long movie with Tommy from Peaky B’s and the guy from Chaplin. 😉
Wow I knew it was bad but not this bad. Despite DR Landy's over control on Brian and Landy self centered interest and in some ways abusive but he saved Brian's life. He (Brian) would have died if Landy did not have those strict weight loss fitness and healthy food routines+ off drugs and alcohol...So glad Brian Made it out alive! .Thanks to Carl and family lawyers. Sad for Dennis. Both had been really abused by their Dad Murray he was the core of some of the deep Problems both brothers had Carl faired better Murray did not hit him. . In the end you are responsible for your own choices and Lifestyle... they (Brain and Dennis) although both mentally sick and needed help they both contributed to their own decline.

I believe he fought his demons. He too had his battles with alcohol in the 1970s, but he got rid of them by himself.

What a joke that the rest of the band told Brian he was fired from the beach boys. He was the Beach Boys lock stock and barrel.

It was the Pet Sounds album that i found under my sisters dresser that I fell in love with, probably at 13 years old. For a short time I thought it was part of a double Sgt Peppers album. My sister had stuck pet sounds in with the Beatles work that had likely been done in part due to Pet Sounds. Anyway, I listened to the two albums over and over during that 13th summer of my life. Pet Sounds had been out for a decade by then, but if your are too young to get it, it would be hard to explain how you didn't hears a variety of music in the 70's, LOL, unless you had that deep access. To this day I put them at one and two in my list of greatest albums, but that's just my opinion.
Hey, I fuckin' loved this little retro. I have watched all the stuff out on the turbulent live and careers of the band and the family (The Wilson's and the Manson's) and this was just so well put together and produced. Awesome job, bud. Murry Wilson would have been proud of you. I am now a subscriber.
They were all that was good & bad with the California music/drug scene in the 60's . I didn't appreciate them till years later. ✌️ Peace out dude ✌️
Mike Love really squandered Brian’s creativity. It’s a damn shame. Pet Sounds is a masterpiece, but The Beach Boys could have been so much more
409 was a great song ! Murry was punched in the face by Dennis , serves him right .
Top notch. Poor Dennis. Charlie fucked him up real bad.
Manson knew where they all lived. I wonder if that was why they moved to the Netherlands.
... three years later in 1972, when Manson was in prison? Seriously?
Manson did not know where they all lived. He knew where Brian, Dennis and their mom Audree lived, but beyond that there's no evidence that he knew where the others lived.
I've followed them since a teen and now in my seventh decade. I and my wife had been to many concerts.
AT EVERY ONE Mike LOVE was the perfect gentlemen, always interacting and acknowledging those in attendance, even signing off on album covers with a black marker. while performing. That was just his way. Not saying the others ignored the fans they did not. Everybody has a different vibe to them when performing. Mike Love was always KIND to the fans at any concert we attended, I believe he is a KIND SOUL. SO I am inclined to give him some slack. No one really knows what the other guy or gal is going through, meaning all of the stuff and crap, in that industry from say 1961 to the present. SO perhaps he made some people uneasy. SO WHAT. He's paid his dues.
Thanks for watching
Despite the court cases, Mike has always paid tribute to Brian.
Nice to read a positive report about Mike. I've been a fan for 50 years, and I know that Mike Love can be an arrogant a-hole at times, but I've argued for years that the hate against him simply isn't justified. Had it not been for his steadfast professionalism the band likely would have fallen apart after Brian's withdrawal and seclusion.
I could never dislike Mike. In his way he has as many issues as Brian.
@@jakemitchell1671 Ditto I'm sure it's a tough life, despite all of the luxuries. You're life is not your own, unless you withdraw to some string of islands.. Even then i'd wager you'd be walking along the beach picking up a cocunut to enjoy, and some one comes running over to you asking for an autograph..that they intend to sell on line.. LOL LOL. Not for me..
it's absolutely crazy to think that there's another timeline where manson becomes a famous musician. makes me wonder how many people in the entertainment business have more incommon with manson behind the curtain than we think
Oh I cant wait to check out that Murry Wilson album on Spotify LOL.....
i was never a big fan despite being an L.A. boy myself but this vid was incredibly interesting alot of shit i didn't know.
Talking out of the side of his mouth was a symptom of overmedication.
Oh really. Thanks for sharing
It was a side effect of Murry hitting him in the ears when he was a child, violently. Brian went deaf in one ear, and began to favor speaking more on the side of his mouth, a common symptom of someone who is deaf in one ear. Being deaf in one ear is why Brian was not impressed with stereo.
The condition is called Tardive Dyskinesia.
And of course I knew there was more of that came from! Cool man.
No band has EVER reached the brilliance of the Beach Boys, not even the moptop 🐞 s. The only other band that carried that spirit respectably were the Ramones!
Truth!
Amazin fact.Carl wilson smoked 60 cigarets a day since his early teens..how on earth he managed that fantastic voice?
Dennis was never the same after his association with the Manson family...
Hey man, like your video but it would be much better without this riff over and over…
Just your voice would do better
Watch some of my other videos the backing is better
Great video, a lot of this i didnt know about. That Landy guy seems a little too hands on for my liking.
Carl is NOT impressed .
Thanks for watching
Lol. Dennis looks off his face so who do they ask the question to? Dennis. Go figure.
GOD BLESS BRIAN WILSON.
Charles was the 6th Beach Boy 😊
And the 5th beatle
No, he was not. And besides, in 1969 there were already six Beach Boys.
said but true...60 year fan...seen them many times...even this past July /24.at Jones Beach N.Y.
Wat all i no is iv never met an aussie who liked them as a band including myself lol.
Thanks for watching
Wasn't Brian's brain fried from the drugs and alcohol *he* did, and the reason Landy intervened in the first place! Granted Landy got too close and was too controlling.
Shouldn't he be given some credit for pulling Brian out of it....
Done when Manson mentioned. Good luck Amerika.
Thanks for watching
Have to wonder if Brian's father did not contribute to his terrible mental health issues. His father sadly was jealous and competetive with brian. Also where was Brian's and Dennis s mother when the father was abusive
Was she in the picture. And if she was. Was she complicit. No wonder why those boys were so messed up. Sad 😢😢😢😢
Probably more fearful than anything. women couldnt talk back then.
While I semi respect them, I’m just not into their sound. Overrated. Who’s that lead singer Mike Love anyway? Dude, you are bald; own it. Great 5 songs though. Rock on Amerika.
Thanks for commenting
It was good at the time.
Brian, one of the true geniuses of rock music. Even the Beatles/George Martin couldn't fathom those vocal arrangements. The musical composition incredible, keeping in mind he was 20yrs old. It was all Brian. It's too bad they were a bunch of ego freak crazies.
I always found the lyrical content meaningless and shallow.
For rock and roll and modern music in general your 20s is your prime. That’s when all these bands did their best work
I was mesmerized by their harmonies. Always thought the Beatles were overrated.
The story of DW, is tragic. he was so talented, but ETOH & Drugs had such a hold on him, he would not---------could not--------stop., & get straight. --------Such a shame. -----MJL, 76 y/o
Was he talented? He seemed mostly along for the ride.
Carl was always the “straight” Beach Boy, because he never took any drugs or alcohol. He also was the glue that held the band together. We all admire him for that.
Carl had his own issues with drugs and alcohol, specifically cocaine and heroin, plus a period where he was out of control with alcohol.
On the contrary, Carl had very serious problems with drugs, alcohol and tobacco. And like Brian, he also had a food addiction. He was able to overcome his most of his addictions with few relapses.
@@1401minstrelApart from cigarettes..........which eventually killed him.
19:21 Landy did what now? 😧
RN CCRN. SO SAD 😭
❤😢 TEMPLE UNIVERSITY ☦️🇺🇲💫
“Cocaine is a hell of a drug” R. James
Watch the movie love and mercy. Loved it. Explores Landry. Wilson Manson connection. Brian fall and rise etc. 😊😊
Love it!!
LANDY
they were real GEEKERS bruh !!!!!
Thanks for watching
A cia band. Good job.
Unfortunately Other than Brian not much song writi mg talent in that band. After 1967 they did very little worth listening to for the past 40 years or so just living off playing the old hits. You watch them on stage now and it’s 3 long time members and about 17 guys really playing the songs.
That’s your opinion. And in my opinion, you’re very wrong about the others not having much songwriting talent.
Dennis and Carl were excellent songwriters. I think they both gave up on songwriting because they felt so overshadowed by Brian.
Have you heard the albums ‘Friends’, ‘20/20’, ‘Sunflower’, ‘Surfs Up’? 😊. Pretty incredible stuff. & Dennis was an excellent songwriter…. U may have your opinion tho………
@@djangorama864And he also dismissed Wild Honey, So Tough, and Holland. The 1967-73 period is a rich vein of colourful material. Some consider this their best period. Others can't move past the surf and car songs and won't accept the great 67-73 period.
Shorty Shea...they killed him too. Matt NYC
Jarred Leto, time to get fat and win an Oscar! Unless you want Pauly Shore to do it with The Life Of Richard Simmons. Maybe you could release it back to back like Barbie and tgat seriously long movie with Tommy from Peaky B’s and the guy from Chaplin. 😉
love and mercy wasnt nearly as interesting as it should have been
Well we live in a trailer at the edge of town....
Wow I knew it was bad but not this bad. Despite DR Landy's over control on Brian and Landy self centered interest and in some ways abusive but he saved Brian's life. He (Brian) would have died if Landy did not have those strict weight loss fitness and healthy food routines+ off drugs and alcohol...So glad Brian Made it out alive! .Thanks to Carl and family lawyers. Sad for Dennis. Both had been really abused by their Dad Murray he was the core of some of the deep Problems both brothers had Carl faired better Murray did not hit him. . In the end you are responsible for your own choices and Lifestyle... they (Brain and Dennis) although both mentally sick and needed help they both contributed to their own decline.
Always hurts to hear that Mike Love is the lead singer
That he did
Why? His vocals are very much what makes the Beach Boys what they are.
Your music still making the band money and they still put the show on in2023 year to come
Manson was a CIA agent sent to create a hippie movement.
This being a low point for the clean cut group.
thanks for watching.
So..what i learned here . Manson was a nut. Abuse in a family. Which means mentally unstable. Such a talent ruined
