    Brian makes me proud to say I'm from Southern California. I remember those exciting years in the 60s, a few miles down the road from where I lived, when they, (The Beach Boys), were still living in Hawthorne and "making it big".

    This may be the best six minute summary of the complexities of Brian Wilson and his life and times. Every year we hear more from Brian after all he has gone through is a blessing. Bless you , Brian Wilson.

    At 4:57, one of the most magic and touching moments of modern music, the younger troubled brother welcoming his older troubled brother back to the band with a hug and a kiss. It is so genuine; too honest for words. Like the middle brother's introduction.

      Dennis and Carl loved Brian. Carl once said of his brother that a sensitive man bruises easily. And for a man with so many bruises I'm happy for him, that most of his pain has subsided. This gentle artist, this great composer has influenced generations with his music. A talent so great, we are all blessed to have him and his music today live and well.

    This is definitely one of the great moments in all of BeachBoy/Brian Wilson history! What an intelligent, heart-felt presentation by Art Garfunkle! Artie is without a doubt the best!! No one else could have done this so perfectly! Brought me to tears. Lord, how I love Brian Wilson!!
    "Bless you Brian"

    Brian Wilson stayed true to the music, putting it first, above commercialism. It's what the great ones do. The Beatles did it, too. They quit touring when it became detrimental to their music, and focused on the songs. It always works out best to focus on the "product" quality first and let the commercial aspect follow, rather than going for the money grab and hoping the product can keep up.

    Brian Wilson is a genius! Period! He created a completely unique and totally new American musical genre that has not only withstood the test of time but has become more beautiful, sweeter and more enduring as the years have passed. 60 years later and it is still so joyful and fun. Thank you, Brian for this most beautiful gift. It means so much to all of us who love your music!

      @@Coowallsky All greats, but sorry, not quite the Beach Boys.
      I've seen many of them before "Autotune", so live shows were really the test.
      While all were amazing in studio, as far as live harmony goes, they were as close to perfect as it goes.
      Eagles were closest and the Everly Brothers and Simon & Garfunkle, though great, were only 2 part.
      Oh, and you left the Beatles out.
      God Bless

    I don't know whether you're THE Jim Webb. If so, your tribute to Brian ("truly a piece of Americana") is especially moving. JW and BW are two of the greatest American songwriters ever. I love the vocal arrangement that BW did on Linda Ronstadt's recording of JW's "Adios." It is the perfect blend of two very different styles.
