OT: Brian Wilson Passes

[Spinal Tap]

Brian Wilson has passed away. 82 years old. What a talent.

 

[Harvard Gamecock]

A musical genius. Pet Sounds. Impossible for us mere mortals to comprehend how he is hearing all in this in his head.
Used 3rds and 6ths on bass lines of which he pioneered. Using his own version of the "wall of sound" for that album.
A MUSICAL GENIUS.

That's number 2 this week. Who will be the third?

 

[KingWard]

Terrific sound! Terrific songs! "Wouldn't it be nice"...?

 

[Psycock]

So much good music. Battled dementia and mental illness but he was in early to mid-20`s when Pet Sounds came out. Genius stuff. RIP Brian.

Brian spent more time on this track than any other on Pet Sounds.
The harp like intro, was actually a 12 string guitar, then followed by the hard beat (crack), which then leads to the lyrics.

Damn

Brian and The Beach Boys along with the Beatles created the soundtrack of my life.
