Thank you and I agree!

Brian is my hero, the Love You album is a canon in pop music...thanks for this!

Beach Boys Love You is quirky but it’s one of my fave albums to listen to all the way thru for some reason! Brian was coming out of his shell again and re-learning his craft again. Pity about the times with Landy and him ripping the band off with his exorbitant fees but he must’ve done some good too. Pity he isn’t around now to answer for some of the criticisms!

Love You is an absolute gem. Long live Mr. Brian Wilson!! ❤️❤️

The look on Brian's face at 17:42 alone begs for another video on his 1980s output. What a rough life, I'm glad he eventually found some stability in it.

Anytime the creative and collective genius of a bunch of musicians like the Wilson brothers and the other guys get together there have to be difficulties. All the great bands have difficulties of some sort! The gifts they gave us are absolute gold!

I didn’t care much for The Beach Boys growing up, although the neighbor boy did. I recently received from KZread a playlist made up of what I have been listening to for the last 3 months or so and lo and behold it heavily features The Beach Boys. I notice references to Brian Wilson so many times when listening to other music he has influenced. Deep respect for the legend that is Brian Wilson.

This is a really good video.

This is one of the most underrated things I’ve seen, great job!

“It’s Over Now” is playing too slowly. You can tell by Carl’s voice. This draggy version first showed up on a box set CD release a good while ago…the “Good Vibrations” box I believe.

It’s funny to see them all playing Fender instruments with Fender amps and Fender spring reverbs, with their striped collar shirts and combed hair. It’s so California

Love You is very overlooked album. Great video, and thanks for taking a closer look at the some of the more forgotten Beach Boys albums.

You know The Beach Boys are good music when The Blues Brothers go on a mission from God to get them band back together too. From 11:43 all is right in the world again.

Brian didn't just write and produce albums, he lived them for better or worse, he didn't just make them up!

I'm so very glad there is so many photos and video footage of Brian and the beach boys!! I adore Brian and his brothers and have grown so appreciative of their music because of how it affects me with it's sound and such upbeat vibes!

This needs more views!

In my humble opinion, The Beach Boys Love You kicks the shit out of anything Brian did in the 60s

thank you for this. love you is the last great, classic beach boys album. it is also my favorite album by anyone of the 70's. i have only heard bootlegs of the adult child sessions. i hope some day they are officially released. i wish someone at capitol in the 60's had had the foresight to say let's release pet sounds as a brian solo project and that someone had the foresight in the 70's at reprise to also release love you and adult child as brian solo albums. this way their critical merits would be appraised without the record companies' potential commercial aspirations taken into account.

This was great! Thank you for making this!

Good work and we need more! Thanks for the video

Bri is the best. Us B's know Thank you, Brian

Brian could well have taken another road...with that Sinatra-like voice....towards Vegas, with songs like Still I dream of it, It's over now and Deep purple...

His voice actually got smoother immediately after the initial Brian's back push, because the band went to Fairfield Iowa to record after Adult Child, and they were all sequestered from drugs. That didn't last though.

I was surprised to hear Brian say that "Do It Again" was released in 1967...

wow, this is great! i really appreciate you dispelling a lot of the myths and urban legends that have been spread around in the wake of jeffrey stillwell’s videos. misinformation like that is imo really harmful to brian’s legacy. i can tell you put a ton of research into this though!!

Sir-------excellent work, & I commend you. As a fan from the very start, I was deeply put off by both " 15 Big Ones " , & ' Love You" ; for me, they are not listenable. and, in seeing the band onstage [ yes, I was there at Anaheim} during '76,'77 & '78, the quality of the shows really disintegrated from who the were in the early to mid-70's. For me, those were golden years, '70---'75, with no BW to cloud the music. -------the '78 album is, I believe, one of their best, '79's is uneven, but has great stuff, & " Keepin The Summer alive", is again, very uneven, but it too, has great moments.------the saga of BW & DW, overshadowed the music , sad to say------WolfSky9, 74 y/o

Quite a few errors, opinions stated as if they were fact and out of context comments from interviews spliced in. Most songs by BW on MIU from the same period that was released. Contrary to the typical erroneous info in this video, Smile actually was released by BW as a solo artist in 2004 and the complete sessions from 1967 by The Beach Boys was released more recently.

With the exception Hey Little Tomboy, the MIU Album songs were recorded in late 1977, after Brian Wilson began another downward spiral.
