@@lucaspadilla4815 Yes, Summer's Gone is really a perfect way to say goodbye I suppose, it's just sad that it has to come to an end but what a back catalogue they have for us to enjoy over and over again.
He didn't even know that Brian and Mike were cousins. Everyone knows that. It must be nice to have dated the bosses daughter like Charlie did. He proved it's not WHAT you know but WHO you know.
This is the finest example of the talent and energy these guys had and still have!! Can't we get them thinking about a round table discussion like this and add in a dozen songs. I don't think we've ever heard them like this - sitting back, discussing ups and downs, favorite songs, feeling about their work like this. Gotta love all of them for how important they are to our consciousness! Do this again guys!!!!
That was a very good interview. Maybe the best I've seen from the 2012 era. At the start I thought they might be acting on their best behaviour but I think they loosened up as it went along. They all seemed honest, heartfelt and fairly at ease in each other's company. 🙂 All heroes, no villains!
The Album they put out that year was one of the best they've done in years I was really impressed with the results it reminded me of some of the previous effects there albums had as too repeatedly listening to it over and over again it had that quality to it 👌
Al Jardine was /is the best singer in the band by far and a perfect example of how good you can look at 80 if you don't (have never) smoke, don't drink, don't do drugs etc
Good interview Charlie Rose. You should have focused more on these types of well-planned interviews with artists, writers & bands like this rather than politics and BS. At a concert for Brian Wilson they asked Vince Gill to sing "Surf's Up," and he said sure. He had assumed -- how difficult could it be? The Beach Boys sing surf & car songs. But when he was given the song he said he couldn't do it...too difficult. He was concerned with the range the song required. They convinced him he could pull it off. And it turned out to be one of the most intense covers of a Beach Boys song, sung live ever. A great interview would be with Brian Wilson & Paul McCartney or George Martin (at that time 2012) on the same set at the same time. We're losing the legends...start talking to them before it's too late & don't ask stupid questions.
@@billviola7884 I thought Mike sounded very level headed here. He deserves some credit. Him and Brian wrote and produced some beautiful songs together.
@@marilynskrepich3238 When he was younger. For the past few years, he seems to have mellowed. He must realise that his life is coming to an end now. I love some of the music and vocals that he has contributed to The Beach Boys and he definitely deserves credit.
12:42 I can imagine that Johnston was _not_ exactly thrilled with the director calling for this shot/camera angle so often throughout the roundtable discussion; not the most flattering or forgiving in terms of exposing his balding pate and oddly shaped skull.
Brian Wilson has a very direct and unfiltered manner in speaking/articulating his thoughts or feelings on a particular subject or matter.
However, his beliefs and realities change from one day to the next.
@@mrsmacca126 _Well_ , I didn't say that he wasn't a bit of a kook. That much has been clear for ages.
Right.
I notice Brian suddenly looked very sad after talking about his brothers. The pain of that loss never goes away. RIP Carl and Dennis.
It's really sad that The Beach Boys didn't carry on making more albums after this point.
Tho I agree, “That’s Why God Made the Radio” ultimately feels like the coda for The Beach Boys, even tho there is still chance for one more
Thank Mike Love for that, as he refused to continue. Brian, Al and David wanted to do more touring and a new album.

@@lucaspadilla4815”Summer’s Gone” is also a great swan song for the band itself. It’s the same with “The Garden” on Rush’s Clockwork Angels album.
This is one of the best interviews of BB I have seen.
Brian is a music god
This is very illuminating. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this. I somehow never saw this back when it came out. I wish they'd do something like this one more time.
It’s nice to actually watch an interview where the interviewer is super nice, knowledgeable and asks the right questions. I enjoyed this.
Agree!

Cancelling Charlie Rose and Tavis eliminated many good interviewing opportunities.
Wonderful interview with The Beach 🏖 Boys. Thank you LUNAR for posting this to CZcams 👍.

best beach boy interview I ever heard-saw
Could not have been said better!!!
Thnxs for sharing this

Great interview!
Love this interview - so good to hear their individual accounts of things, just talking old and current times 😀
Breaks my heart when brian says he
misses his brothers How fond he was of Carl Everyone Loved Carl Wilson
Honestly. Brian looking like a million bucks with that full head of hair at 70 years old.
love ya Brian
Geminis are very good musically............Brian, Paul and Prince. Great video!
Also Freddie Mercury
Just saw them last night. Great concert!
Al Jardine was /is the best singer in the band by far and a perfect example of how good you can look at 80 if you don't (have never) smoke, don't drink, don't do drugs etc
lol. He’s a good singer. certainly not the best
He’s the best singer in the group today
Carl Wilson was the best singer.
Best Band EVER...
All their early hit recordings were made using studio musicians.
Awesome!
Saw this 50th anniversary tour, honor considering Brian's mental shape now.
Good interview Charlie Rose.

I was at that beacon show Mike mentioned 🎉
Mike Love had an overblown image of himself.
@@billviola7884 I thought Mike sounded very level headed here. He deserves some credit. Him and Brian wrote and produced some beautiful songs together.
He always had a big ego

...they are a part of American culture...
There’s not one beach boys video without a disparaging comment about Mike. Stop it. Get some help. 😊
6:04 Good Lord
Love ya Brian 🎶😎👍🏻
Greatest rock band of ALL time….
Good vibrations and excitations😀
This 'harmony' between them didn't last too long😢
I saw The Beach Boys at the Filmore East I think 69, 70. Grateful Dead was on the bill. They played okie from Muskogee and help me Rhonda together

Bruce looks fine.
Really?
Would love a get together to just hear updated chat! 😊❤
I miss Charlie Rose ...
Brian certainly looks like he was wishing to be ANYWHERE ELSE but in this studio doing this interview.
he looks a lot more "with it" here than he does in most interviews.
Result of using LSD for years..he said it blew his brains out
@@ronfowlermusic Yeah. He did great.
I like SMiLE over Pet Sounds too.
1:58 Frightening
Who ruined the Mercedes Benzes when you were in Baambrugge ????
way too big forehead alert .036
Mike is still bald
Hair could never grow under all those hats he's worn the last 50 years!
And your point?
A room chocked FULL of mediocrity.
Oh, go play with your Nirvana.
Such a dumb comment
