In 2014, BBC Music created a cover version of Brian Wilson’s song, God Only Knows, featuring a wide range of artists and Brian himself.
In tribute to Brian, here is that performance. 
And you can hear Brian Wilson at the BBC on BBC Sounds now.
Brian WIlson (*) zum heutigen 83. Geburtstag: Der kalifornische (Alb)Traum:
"Migration, Weltverbesserung, Technologie und Drogen: Kalifornien war stets Ort popkultureller Visionen. Der Tod von Brian Wilson könnte mit ihrem Ende zusammenfallen."

“During the making of Pet Sounds, apparently Wilson was particularly enamoured with a philosophical treatise by #ArthurKoestler called the ‘Act Of Creation’. What did he learn from it?
“I learned that #humour was more important to a person than art or science,” — #BrianWilson

“'SURF POLICE' order the Beach Boy into LA ocean”
‘The Beach Boys played a staggering amount of #concerts in 1974 and 1975, but by 1976 they knew it was time to actually cut a new album.
Manager Steve Love came up with the idea of a “Brian’s Back” campaign where the long-absent Beach Boy would produce the #disc and join the #group on tour for the first time in over a decade.’

I don't think this has been reported before. Fellow Beach Boy Al Jardine says the decline in #BrianWilson's health began with #LongCovid. #CovidIsNotOver

Cliff's Song of the Day
Link to post: https://app.crucialtracks.org/profile/cliff/20250613
"Kokomo" by The Beach Boys & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
Listen on Apple Music (https://music.apple.com/us/album/kokomo/1377348586?i=1377349146)
Since we lost Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys two days ago, I'm going to stick with them for today's song just like I did yesterday. Except today it's going to be a song that was done much later in their career, as in from 1988. Kokomo by the Beach Boys is another one of those songs that the moment I hear it, it's then instantly stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
It's such a great, catchy song and I song I absolutely love. Not my favorite by them, as I like their older stuff better, but it's in the top 5 or so I feel.
[Intro: Mike Love]
Aruba, Jamaica, ooh, I wanna take ya
Bermuda, Bahama, come on, pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, baby, why don't we go?
Jamaica
[Verse 1: Mike Love]
Off the Florida Keys
There's a place called Kokomo
That's where you wanna go
To get away from it all
Bodies in the sand
Tropical drink melting in your hand
We'll be falling in love
To the rhythm of a steel drum band
Down in Kokomo
[Chorus: All, Carl Wilson]
Aruba, Jamaica, ooh, I wanna take you
To Bermuda, Bahama, come on, pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, Ooh, baby why don't we go?
I wanna take you down to Kokomo
We'll get there fast
And then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go
Way down in Kokomo

Akustisch kann man den Zug am Ende von "Pet Sounds/Caroline, No" auf demselben Gleis zu einem anderen Genie derselben Zeit (1967) fahren lassen: zu John Fahey, Vater des "American Primitive" und seinen "A Raga Called Pat I & II".
Zwei Amerikas, zwei Avantgardes.
Brian und John. Küste und Wüste.
Brian Wilson’s visionary songwriting held unmatched emotional power. And in person he never disappointed
