- The Beach Boys performing at Live Aid in front of 100,000 people in the John F. Kennedy Stadium, Philadelphia USA on the 13th July, 1985. The event was organised by Sir Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise funds for the Ethiopian famine disaster. Broadcast across the world via one of the largest satellite link-ups of all time, the concerts were seen by around 40% of the global population.

My favourite bit is right at the beginning when Carl interrupts Mike's bs and just starts the song. 😂
Best thing for everybody really.
😂😂😂
I honestly cackled over that. :-)
Mike Love man he made the band...🙂
Carl look disgusted at this ranting moron and just cut him off.
Carl Wilson is such an underappreciated musician. What a voice.
I love your comment but I don't think anyones ever underappreciated carls voice
Your comment contradicts itself.
dude , he is NOT underappreciated. Browse around CZcams. He is totally acknowledged and appreciated.
Right??????!!!!!!!!!
I do not think Carl was underappreciated when you read all the comments on most of the musicians he has worked with or was friend with It is just that he was not a show off as Mike Love who always wanted (and still wants) to be the focal point
The Beach Boys were really a like a human body when you think about it.
Brian was the brain, Dennis was the heart, Carl was the soul, Al was the spirit, and Mike was the asshole.
Mike was the feet, he kept the band moving and without him they would have been content to sit on their ass for the last 35 years. He gets no respect, but Brian knows you need to take good care of your feet, because he's still cashing paychecks from MIke's endless touring. Why some fans feel the need to hate certain members is beyond me. Small minded thinking.
@@LyonsArcade Brian never needed Mike's money. He was already cashing checks constantly from "Good Vibrations" or the "Pet Sounds" album, as it was REALLY making bank a few years after initial release in the U.S. and almost immediately everywhere else. The Beach Boys didn't need to go on as long as they have been. They ran their course, and Mike was the only one ever publicly opposed to the idea of stopping, or at least as a touring band. Everyone else didn't seem to mind the idea, seeming it'd been a little more than 20 years that they were at it, and Brian was going through hell and back almost always. Maybe mention that the fans don't like Mike Love because he generally just didn't care for Brian's poor condition for so long, or the fact that he makes it clear he's a perverted old man with an ego, and doesn't hide it? Hell, he'll even gloat about being like that, sometimes. The beach Boys' as a touring band is a water logged corpse of a formerly amazing horse, that's being whipped constantly by Mike love, or should I say "The little douche coupe". He is an average singer at best, and that's all he's offered besides dumbing down Brian's work. Brian would make some big mistakes in his music on occasion, but he'd almost immediately go back to cranking out masterpiece by the dozens. (And not to mention, Capitol basically required him legally to make some of his less than favorable tunes.) Mike has only been keeping things rolling, because he knows the money will end for nobody involved but him, once it's finally over. He's not continuing it for the music, fans, or anything. It's for money, and having people to go "I'm better then you!" at, and make creepy jokes about cheerleading outfits, in front of. Mike is still a Beach Boy, nobody can deny that at least.... But that doesn't mean he's not worthless. He is. Enough said.
What’s the difference between heart, soul and spirit?
@@LyonsArcade you really found a way to twist things
Lol! You got that right!
mikes "yeah" before the last chorus is his shining moment as a musician
Yes! I love whenever he does that during a live performance of Good Vibrations.
Hahahahaha it is a nice add.
Love them and Love sounds great and looks great here
The fact Carl smoked so much and still had an amazing voice this entire time is a true testament to how great of a voice he and Brian and Dennis were as singers
My voice teachers always said that smoking improves the voice. Look at Frank Sinatra.
Aaron Hagstrom It’s a deadly habit, but you have a point. I think Adele smokes. That’s one reason she sounds like she does.
Al jARDINE is the greatest singer in the world today because he didn't smoke
I so wish Carl could have quit, his death was a terrible loss. A beautiful person and a true professional to the end.
@@matthewclark7952 God only knows...
I can't believe how great Live Aid was.
It was....it was! I HAVE SEEN IT ALL ON TV AT THE TIME 33 YEARS AGO
It was better than it looks in these videos. The raw energy, the talent, the sheer positiveness and conviction of doing something good for the world. Every artist being played on the radio, on mtv, all of them, playing in one concert, going on in several places at once. To this day, still historic.

excluding led zeppelin
This sounds astonishingly good. These guys had real talent. The vocals are so in tune. Blown away.
Same reaction for me. I was 20 watching on TV when this was going on, but I don't remember too many performances.
The way I remember this is like this. It was one of the first times the world saw Brian Wilson after many years of being reclused. He was fit but didn't look performance ready. It was fantastic to see him, many people thought he would never pull out from the depths of his darkest days during the 70's. Brian here is still was under the control of Eugene Landy, God only knows what drugs were being used to numb his performances. Very sadly Denis Wilson had died a few years earlier. Carl Wilson is the only Wilson holding a fragmented band together here.
@Patrick Trist he will be, those that know, know
@Patrick Trist - McCartney himself said Pet Sounds was a great album.
leokimvideo 👍.
@@rjjcms1 - What is that in English?
@@scootergeorge9576 Agreeing with the original comment,posted by leokimvideo.
Carl was the glue that held the Beach Boys together vocally and as a band. RIP.
The glue that held together the gears of the Beach Boys.
@@andrewdevine3920 I agree with your comment except that you don't want gears to stick together. I would have gone with oil or WD-40. Carl kept the gears of the Beach Boys moving smoothly. Still completely agree with you though.
I heard he did play an instrumental role in getting rid of Eugene Landy and saving his brother Brian from his control.
Carl was the backbone of the Beach Boys, and I love him.
So why did they continue to be together after he was dead?
This song has more music in it than most albums.
Weapons Education most modern albums
I really want to like the comment. But it's on 69 likes and I can't ruin that.
Yeah , 'couse it's a synphony
@Gus Woodgate Well it's way over 69 so it's been ruined for awhile. So get yo ass back here to this video and like the comment now.
Weapons Education,
How Right You Are!
i love the whole “Gotta keep those lovin good vibrations” segment with the crowd, shows how big the song really was that so many people knew it
Saw them in concert late 70s/early 80s (would have to dig out the ticket stub). What I remember the most is this song and the audience participation. Blew my mind. I don't recall if Mike yammered while we all sang. I wish he hadn't here.
@@jmmlpn286 Mike earned the right to do whatever he pleased. He wrote the lyrics to what I think is one of the best songs of the 1960s and which is synonymous with the Beach Boys.
This sounds so good with headphones on and the fact it's live... That's not easy. Great performance.
I love how Carl just sails into that beautiful falsetto. Unearthly.
That wasn't a falsetto. He was a natural tenor.
Not an easy song to reproduce live, especially as ramshackle as a gig like his with such little time to organise, great effort
Kinda like your spelling skills
@@moncorp1 Fuck off mate.
Old skool look at the documentary on CZcams of this day. Its amazing that the American side even happened
moncorp1 Inc, he spelled nothing wrong. Go hate elsewhere.
@@kroakie4 organize?
Carl Wilson is my favourite singer of all time. That expression and that transition between head and chest voice is unbelievable.
Carl Wilson was such a gift to this world.
Brian and Carls unmistakable unique voices
One of the best bands in the history of rock and roll
Dont take drugs. Biggist shit in history
Sideshow Bob Why?
@Sideshow BobPet Sounds influenced the Beatles to make Sgt. Pepper's. Their music is great to get into that 60s surf vibe.
True, man
albert weaver Definetly
Carl's hitting those high notes beautifully. Sounded great.
No matter how imperfect the sound is, There's never a single time when I don't end up feeling soooo nice when listening to the Beach Boys . Looove the BB's and always will. They are FUN, FUN, FUN !!!
The sound is almost perfect here. Terrific
Agreed. If you watch the Kennedy Center honors for Brian Wilson, there's a point where the entire audience gets up and starts clapping and dancing. It's really hard not to with a lot of Brian's music.
Mike Love is like the guy who puts no effort into the group project but takes all of the credit because he's the only one who's not shy when presenting.
Carl,bless him, was a fantastic singer and musician...taken far to early...RIP Carl.
Carl Wilson is so underrated. Seriously the man should be included like in the top 20 Rock vocalists of all time. With such an iconic voice in songs like Good Vibrations and God Only Knows. And also an amazing guitar player.
Javier Torres you wouldn’t think a heavy smoker would sing like that.
Carl should at least be in the Top 10 Greatest Singers of all time.
I don’t think he sang lead on the Good Vibrations single.
Incorrect. He did, indeed.
Feel Flows
I love how at 2:50 you can see Brian not clap together with the band or sing together with them, but just wave his arms and conducted his own little pocket symphony.
He heard music differently i think then most people did
He probably didn't know where he was. I honestly don't know why they even kept dragging him around with them.
@@robertciscoe9318he was under the influence of drugs from Dr Langley or whatever his name was but he was part of a good band from the sixty's
I have never seen anyone post a negative comment about Carl. What a talent. Gone too soon
And I have never seen anyone post a positive comment about Mike. What a douche. Still alive!
You ever see a positive post about
Hateful Mikey?
Mikey "Love." The original Douche
Coupe!
Matt Jardine, Alan's son, has about the
best falsetto I've ever heard. PERIOD!
Carl's was better!
steve
Yes Denny too :(
Either have I. Mikey,
not so much.

I've seen exactly 1 comment where someone put down Carl and whoever wrote it sounded like Carl stole his girlfriend or something. Can't remember what it said but something along the line that he was a poser, of some other stupid nonsense. But yeah, that's one negative comment in a sea of praise and positive comments about the man, and rightfully so!
Such a beautiful voice and unique touch Carl added to all of Brian’s masterpieces. Rest In Peace Carl Wilson.
God bless Carl Wilson. Such an amazing performer. RIP
I've been on a Beach Boys binge for 5 days now. This video my favorite. I love Carl's voice and he grew to be such an handsome man. The LOVE & Admiration Carl, Brian and Dennis had for each other was so beautiful.
Time to get some Tommy Bahama!
Remember this like it was yesterday. I was one of the 100000 plus attendees. 37 years later I’ll never forget that awesome day.
Was there, from Philly burbs. Miss JFK in general...
Yes, I was there that day as well. Saw them perform in front of the art museum steps for a July 4th concert the year they weren't invited back to DC to perform because it was feared that they would draw the "wrong element" to DC that day
I remember President Ronald and Nancy Reagan being pretty upset about that and apologized to them for that screw up.
Im happy for you
Carl Wilson was the glue of the Beach Boys. They were never the same after he passed.
God bless Carl. He kept this thing together--and not poorly. He really made it work.
Hard to believe this song was less than 20 years old at the time.
Great to see Brian playing onstage with the rest of the lads there
I think, but not sure, if that's Brian's mentalist (Landy) way off to the right of the stage?
As a LITTLE kid I always thought Mike Love was the leader, the main guy. I'd see Brian at the keyboard and think, "what does THAT guy ever do, anyway?" LOL
I never liked Mike Love.
@@allanspence1347 Who does..?
Mike Hate is a douche bag !!!!!!!!!!
@@allanspence1347 I LOVE Mike Love.
@@flashfish2005 I LOVE Mike Love.
To perform this difficult song without alot of preparation in this setting...just shows the incredible talent these guys had.
Carl had such an iconic voice. You can pick it out of almost any Beach Boys recording.
Carl had such a fantastic voice, and he was also great on the guitar - so good that Brian rarely hired a session guitarist and just had Carl play instead!
What BS. Have you heard of the Wrecking Crew?
@@saleasylum On the footage of the studio recording of Good Vibrations, there is a shot of Carl playing guitar. Check it out at czcams.com/video/uVlSVkzbJDA/video.html. It's at two minutes and seven seconds in.
@sternenkind Check the credits, most guitar parts are played by a session musician.
@sternenkind I agree with the notion that he played some guitar parts, but not that he played most of them.
@sternenkind One of the best guitarists? Come on, I can understand that you like the sound, but come on... You're exaggerating. Ringo was never complex. Ringo's playing is extremely simple, but has character. Lennon, again, wasn't the least bit impressive in his playing. None of The Beatles were impressive in their playing. Even Pink Floyd who weren't all that impressive in their playing themselves, compared to other bands, have Gilmour and Wright who are miles better than any member of The Beatles or The Beach Boys in terms of ability. Plus, a drummer's strength being able to hold a backbeat means that the drummer is just bad. Any kid, that's not completely lacking in rhythm, after a few lessons and practice, can hold a backbeat. I get that you maybe like the way they play, but let's just get a little perspective. Nothing they (and the Beatles) ever played themselves is or was impressive on a technical level.
Carl carried them in this performance...and Mike knows it
That's the absolute truth .
They would be NOTHING without Brian
@@PantonePapi Carl carried them when playing live for sure. In the studio, it was Brian
notbenny you don’t get to the stage without the studio
@@PantonePapi yeah but this is a live video so they're commenting on the live performance lmao
Old legends, what The Beach Boys did for rock will never be forgotten.
In addition to his musical talents and his big heart, Carl was one snappy dresser!
I can't believe how great Live Aid was.
I love how Carl just sails into that beautiful falsetto. Unearthly.
Brian Wilson is The Best!
@@greatcitysportaction2289 Everyone but John Stamos. Although he has heart
He looks great here too!!
Yes
A real band playing real music. No playback, no autotune.
Spectacular. What a pleasure to hear the Beach Boys. Such uplifting music.
They all look like a bunch of golf players lmao
talented legendary gold players..
It’s fine
"In My Put" "Golfer Girl" "Par, Par, Par" Kiss Me, Caddie" "This Hole World" "Don't Go near the Sand"
"Good-Good Viberations" "Little Birdie" "golfer club"
The beach boys are are the best vocal band ever
With incredible musical talent and some of the best harmonies ever.
Carl was slim and trim here and singing beautifully, as usual!
Every vowel, every register transition, every note duration, pitch, tone, everything has to be near perfect with vocals of this calibur.
It's really unbelievable that Dennis had only been gone for just about a year and a half at this point. What a total shame!
Wow, this reminds me of why I used to have a tremendous crush on Carl Wilson. I saw the Beach Boys in concert in 1978. My friends and I managed to push our way right up to the front of the stage. When they sang "Good Vibrations," I swear Carl was singing directly to me, just a few feet away. I was so sad when he died.
i wish i was born in your generation i will gladly trade all the autotune for a live concert of the beach boys
The Unknown I felt so fortunate that I saw all three of the Wilson brothers. Although it was after their 1960s heyday (I was too young for that), it was before the deaths of Carl and Dennis, and during the time when Brian was VERY RARELY touring.
Carl's voice is just so awesome. Love the suit he was sporting.
Mike Love trying to pump up the crowd while screaming over them. Classic
Rip Carl you’ll be missed can’t believe it was 23 years ago
Carl was always my favorite Beach Boy. I got to see one of his last peformances ever on his last tour with the Beach Boys.
Seriously....Have you ever heard anyone hit a falsetto like Carl?
His big bro maybe ;)
@@billshank6266 Just Brian
yes. Harry Nilsson
Half of the Beatles, half of Queen, or really any decent male vocalist.
Those Bee-Gees weren’t too shabby with the falsetto, but I love both.
“Good Vibrations” and “Kokomo” are two of my favorite songs along with many other songs by The Beach Boys. I had the privilege to see The Beach Boys in 2012 and it was definitely one of my favorite concerts ever. The Beach Boys paid loving tribute to Dennis Wilson and Carl Wilson which was nice to see.
Nice. Dennis’s “Forever” is very underrated (though still probably the most well known of his songs, in my opinion the best songwriter in the group after Brian), it was so nice to see them pay tribute to him with it (same with Carl and God Only Knows)
@@charliestoops8815 "Forever" was indeed Dennis' signature piece but my favorites were "The River Song" and "Baby Blue." I truly appreciate your opinion of Dennis' song writing skills as being second only to Brian's brilliance. Thank You Charlie! RIP Denny and Carl...
Of course! “Baby Blue” is a great song, same with “River Song” from Pacific Ocean Blue, far and away the best solo album but out by a Beach Boy and one of the most underrated of the 1970s, it’s a favorite of mine. My favorite Dennis song is probably “(Wouldn’t It Be Nice to) Live Again”, an outtake from the Surf’s Up sessions that was eventually released in the 2010s. Great tune, the extended version on the channel “Big Joe’s Beach Boys” I highly recommend.
Brings memories of a great era on so many ways. Thank you Beach Boys for decades of great music.
Brian Wilson was truly the real genius of the boys.
I miss The Beach Boys. They were and still are the best.
Got goosebumps watching this and the next thing I knew tears were running down my face....The Beach Boys were simply spinetingling at Live Aid....Will always be remembered...iconic....
That's what The Beach Boys would do to your (our) emotions. Their music was Happy, Happy in the early years 1961 thru 1965. Then through the Brilliant (I would say Genius) mind of Brian's song writing their musical journey turned, mostly, into a deeper and more soulful introspection of "Our Collective Human Condition." Bittersweet and Joyful all mixed into one. Like yourself @Midnight Blue, I have often found myself with those same tears of emotion streaming down my face as well. My Favorite Band of all time, The Beach Boys! RIP Beautiful Dennis and Angelic Carl.
Carl is my all time favorite singer.
Remember watching this on TV and taping it on my VCR
I've been watching a lot of Live Aid videos recently and I think my favorite part is Carl Wilson starting Good Vibrations.
Carl's voice is just pure gold
I watched the whole great concert live on TV as it happened 13th July, 1985. Their was so much incredible talent at Live Aid. I recorded it all on VHS.
Dudes voice, gives me chills 😍
Me too❤
Carl was the glue that kept them together. When he passed that was the end. Now were left with two factions and neither one will bend.
The not-Mike Love faction should never bend.
Mike Love is a douchenozzle that basically stole the group.
He was a co-vocalist, that's it. Barely played anything, wrote even less, and mostly leeched off the success.
Why would anybody bend to that tool?
Wow wow wow!!! Live Aid wouldn't be the same without the Beach Boys represent. God bless everyone and thank you for sharing
Man I wish Carl was still alive. RIP.
Rest In Peace Dennis Wilson, Carl Wilson, Billy Hinsche, and Jeffrey Foskett, you all are missed.
I was there! One of the best days of my life!
Carl Wilson. great singer, songwriter and guitar player.
I was in that crowd. Unforgettable.
This was and will always be the best concert in history
The first concert I ever attended was in 1988 in Burlington, Iowa at Steamboat Days. The Beach Boys were the headliners. I am now 45 going on 46 and I am forever hooked on their music. In my humble opinion, they are the GREATEST OF ALL-TIME.
Carl Wilson had an absolute pitch. That's what made him such a great live performer also. Doesn't sing a single off note
So...
Literally every band I ever heard of played Live Aid 1985
You've never heard of the Beatles?
The Beatles didn’t exist in 1985
@@jacobpullen6949 Paul McCartney performed Let it Be so close enough.

Gotta be hot as heck in those suit jackets, though.
@@peterpinsent9304 No argument from me.
Carl was by far one of the Best best-looking guys ever. We 1946ers are a wonderful group. Miss you every day.
There's joy in this stellar performance of a heavenly beautiful song. But when I see Carl like that, I feel sadness too. He left this world way too young.
Carl was amazing!
KacioRMX heck yeah you’re right
@@greatcitysportaction2289 He had perfect pitch , I understand.
Always
Miss him the most!!
Is he the one in the beard, guitar and long hair singing most of it?
I love this video. I remember seeing The Beach Boys in the early to mid 1990's while Carl Wilson was still alive. He sounded great in the concerts I was at but he seems more lively in this video which is great. He sounds great in this video too and sounded great in the concerts I saw him in. It is such a shame we lost Carl at such a young age since he is such an inspiration to me and probably others. I wish I had met him personally. Carl was definitely a quality person and also definitely the glue that held the Beach Boys together. This is a great video.
I met Carl many times. I'm sure you would have liked him. He was humble,"darlin'", and very, very funny. He always gave credit to others,and rarely to himself. Did I mention HUMBLE? And obviously extremely talented. He sang when he wasn't on stage, too. He had perfect pitch. Such a loss. He was one of a kind.💝
missed two chances to see them, but Carl and Dennis were gone, so I felt lost without them.
Live Aid is one of the Marvels of modern history. Brought the Best of humanity
Carl Wilson with the most 80's look possible
He's sporting his Michael McDonald look here.
I pray that when I get to Heaven I will hear Carl humming a tune.
RIP, Carl. Loved your voice, man.
So brave to do this song live......
And it works perfectly.......!!
One of the best days of my life
Carl Wilson was an amazing musician! God Bless, Carl! :)
Every time I saw the Beach Boys live in concert I was blown away! One of my favorite bands in high school
Man had a voice of an angel.
Absolute masterpiece even in live version.
Amazing carl wilson...love his lifework in the band. .great singer..
Beach Boys are one of my all-time favorite groups! God bless them forever from Pat
Oh I love Carl...so very sad he is not longer here. So so very. He was the best singer from the beach boys
My grandmother was obsessed with this song r.i.p. 1919-2007
Carl is carrying this performance
I did not remember seeing the Beach Boys at Live Aid 1985. America's Band! Classic!
This song was 19 years old in 1985! The Beach Boys came out of retirement for this event.
Not an easy thing to do live, but they nailed it!
I grew up in Carl’s hometown in Hawthorne, CA. I didn’t know Carl is Dean Martin’s son in law.
