RIP, a wonderful man with a wonderful voice. I was at a Brian Wilson show once and Jeff was the highlight of the show, such energy and positive vibrations from him all through the show. Stayed after shaking hands with anyone who was hanging by the scene. 🙁
Jeffrey Foskett passes at 67 from thyroid cancer.. The work Jeff did over the years providing such sweet sounds, often covering for Brian or Carl, can never be credited enough. Even the stage positioning, in vids like this, allowing Brian to take the crowd's 'vocal bow', even though nearby Jeff was doing the 'heavenly high' vocal work. Jeff..you will always be one of the Beachboys to me. Brian's closest stage ally. Thank you and Godpeed. r.i.p. sir.
Rest In Peace Jeffrey Foskett...such an incredible voice and integral part of Brian's return to the stage. I feel so lucky to have seen "Pet Sounds" performed live with Brian, Jeffrey and the incredible band back in 2005 at the Mann Center in Philadelphia. Easily one of my favorite concerts of all time.
jeff foskett performed wotj Papa Doo Run Run at the RISING SUN NAVY BEAN FESTIVAL around 2008. A great talented musician that was very down to earth and a wonderful human beiing. RIP jeff
I think that Jeff likes taking his low profile. His voice is indispensable. In fact he often emcees the group's introductions. But he doesn't seek the spotlight. Nor wish to get top billing as Brian, Mike, Al, David and Bruce do. He's a true trooper! I respect that!
What a wonderful band and a wonderful man you are a true friend to all of us and we will always love each and every one on the band thank you all for the awesome music cause you guys rock.
The Beach Boys are : Brian Wilson, Carl Wilson, Dennis Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, Bruce Johnston, David Lee Marks AND last but not least Jeff Foskett. Honorable mention: Glen Campbell. So somebody please tell Wikipedia that Jeff Foskett is one of The Beach Boys. Thank you.
"Jeff is more a Beach Boy than David or Bruce." WRONG! I like Jeff and yes he should be considered the 8th Beach Boy. He still joined decades after Bruce and David. Not to mention David Marks was on the first 4 or 5 albums with them when Al wasn't he IS! an original member!
Jeff was awesome on tour and he has contributed now to the bands success. He had instrumental parts in Isn't It Time and That's Why God Made the Radio. If it wasn't for his falsettos I just don't think the album that came out in 2012 would be a Beach Boy sounding album...
Jeff has been a mainstay since 1981 replacing Carl when he went solo. IMO, BJ's input into the bands portfolio is a negative. DM of course had an early influence, but many minor fans for years thought DM and AJ were the same person! But I digress. I stand by the fact that Jeff has put more into the BB than the other 2 guys mentioned.

Spoke with Jeffrey and he is a verry kind man and what i voice!
God bless you brian . RIP carl and dennis
Jeff is a great guy. I'm sure he's one of the reasons that keep Brian going!
Guilherme Peternelli yeah he is awesome
Jeff was the best imitator of Brian's voice. A few slight intonation problems here and there... but still excellent. RIP Jeff.
Jeff is THE voice of the Beach Boys as we knew them !
Mike Love's appearance in this video literally made me lol

Don't forget Blondie Chaplin, Ricky Fataar, and Billy Hinsche

Good point.
@Gazpatcho8- Yeah. Backup singer. Right. Okay.
Jeff's vocal and songwriting talents far exceed those of the Beach Boys. Get his solo albums, they are nearly perfect.
LoL ... a back-up singer? LoL ... he has been a fixture with the BB and BW since 1981! Even when Carl was healthy JF would sing important LEADS.

WTF are you saying. Use words please.
What guitar is Jeff playing in this vid? Thanks.
An Epiphone 12 String
David was an original member and was on the first four albums, far more significant than jeff who is probably a nice guy but just a back up singer.
Jeff is more a Beach Boy than David or Bruce.
For those that have not heard the news, Jeff left BW for ML's cover band.
