Yeah, these kind of interviews are the best. It's like, when they interview Messi, they always ask him about Cristiano Ronaldo, of his family, controversies, etc, but never about football!

Beautiful Loser isn’t it beautiful? I have the chills and tears in my eyes. Brian can’t possibly realize the effect his incredible music has on people. He’s truly an angel sent from God.

Echo Then after that, Beach Boys Today and SMiLE sessions. Their discography even after Pet Sounds it pretty solid up into the late 70’s.

Yeah! The whole run from Today! until Holland is soooo solid. Very underrated. And then Love You and L.A later 70's both just great albums also.

I listen to it constantly. It's Holy.

agreed! Have/having kids? The Pet Sounds LP should be their baptism

My fav Beach Boys album from the. day it came out! 💝 I still listen to it (straight thru) at least once a month!

It's the same as the 1963 American vintage P-bass in white but with the pickup cover removed.

Carole K

I've got a 61 p bass. I might sell it soon. 😁

magradygrind as long as They make a Lefty, so I could get one!

@@TimV93 and Brian Wilson did have the pickup cover on until 1965 it would seem

Mike has given Brian alot of abuse over the years but he holds no grudges against him. Brian loves everyone.

Michael David Blood's thicker than water, as they say.

Brian loves his boys. It's in his heart and soul to speak of them that way.

It's apart of their 90s settlement!! Ahahahahaha

MrSixiesRock he’s a great guy

Now he is sick...😟 Just mostly wore out for touring.

I think he's happy these days.

in the great shape of the agriculture!

Amen. Had exactly the same feeling, thoughts. Love the man, love the songs.

He seems happy and relaxed these days. So good to see him this way after the long and sometimes difficult journey he’s had.

and a fucking genius too

Wouldnt say the best producer

Best producer, top 10 writer

@DereMemo It's alright to have an opinion, but to label him 'terrible' is total bollocks and you know it!

@DereMemo the beach boys have a very vast catalogue of music. If you don't like their commercial poppy stuff, they have plenty of deep stuff as well

rafasounds2010 because tbh Brian is pretty fragile at this point and not really long-winded at all. He actually seemed more enthused and talkative in this clip than I’ve seen recently

@@younghemingway8285 Exactly. I think when you put him in his natural atmosphere, among musicians and musical instruments, it definitely brings the best out of him.

I dont think there has been such an interview with brian since the 90s maybe early 00s, and there may not be an actual continuous recording of him of him being interviewed that long(3 hours+) from anytime. Brian always seemed to be short with his answers, not giving the question much thought, and wanting to leave as soon as possible. Possibly around his first solo tour or the 04 smile, but even then I dont know if there 3 hours+ of brian talking about anything.

Man, you guys! I'm pretty sure that was a rhetorical question!

@@magneto7930 Nice to see him open up more...in a more recent interview. The natural environment that works best for him is among other musicians when discussing his music. I hope future interviews with him will use what worked nicely here. Also nice to see Blondie Chaplin.

good luck kid also if you love them search out not just their hits but their albums and unreleased stuff too, you tube has a lot of good bootlegs on here too. like Get the Boot Vol 1 and 2. a song called Hard times is a great blondie song that was i want to say (1973) it's an outtake from i want to say Holland. i've been a fan for the past 35 years and i saw them in concert in 86. the only thing that drives me nuts is when people who claim how much they love them yet you mention certain songs like with me tonight, Our Team, only with you which is one of the most prettiest songs i've ever heard in my life, than Carl's masterpiece Heaven. those people only know the hits and while that's not a bad thing, they have done so much great music and songs that i think are better than their hit singles, such as Little Honda, i love Chug-a-lug, your my miss America i think is title of it. the shift is another, judy is decent i think. so check out their lesser known stuff and you will really fall in love with them. their best stuff for me is (1965-1973) that's when they were at their peak i think and yes they did outstanding albums before that but creative wise it was those years and search out their sessions stuff too it's great to listen to, the help me Rhonda sessions seek that out it's on here too

Stimpson J. Kat i grew up with the early surf songs and I as I grew up I grew more fond of their obscure stuff, I love everything from surfs up to still cruisin’ I love keeping the summer alive as a whole album, LA, and the 1985 album, it’s hard for me to name a beach boys song that’s my favorite and one that’s my least favorite, so versatile as a band

@@liamkeane4214 Spot on! Also loved ALL of them... "Good Vibrations" blew our sox off but "God Only Knows" ... haunting melody & lyrics... what is gr8 is younger generation & some Millenials are tuned into 60's/'70's fabulous music be it via parents or via the worldwide wonderful Web (tks Steve Jobs & Wozniak & Gates et al)...

Him and Paul McCartney are probably the best 2 remaining

no that's Kanye West

maluma

Indeed!!!!

@@SilversteinRescue ha good joke

by some she is forgotten but by others like us she isn't. is she even still around?

@@rolandofgilead43 She is still around. Just retired. I learned how to play the bass with Carol Kaye, and Mel Bay. Bought their books (learn to play), back in 1975 when I was 14y/o.

@@rolandofgilead43 thankfully, yes!

Half of what makes I Get Around great is the bass line. I know it isn’t her playing, but still.

shes wasnt even that good

Thant's awesome! We are glad to hear you love the interview.

52? I cannot compete with that but I do have my original'68 sunburst Precision (should've bought the white one) and a slightly earlier Mustang. Used to own a Rhodes, too. Love Fender's electric instruments.

Not many are conducted in front of a piano. This is him at his most relaxed and at ease. Wondering if the sound of the keys shuts out the voices in his head.

Brian Wison= great. Lennon and McCartney > BW.

Sy Goldman Lennon McCartney for me 2nd to Brian

that voice is still golden!

I Love his falsetto on I get around

What an unusual and remarkable thought! And they did it!

2011 interview on the QTV was pretty good
