The #BeachBoys reflect on 'Good Vibrations' and how Brian Wilson is doing now | Gold Radio
Gold's James Bassam interview with The Beach Boys legends Mike Love and Bruce Johnston at the launch of their new Disney+ documentary.
Starting out as a garage band, the California group emerged as the leaders of the surf rock boom of 1963, but managed to sustain their success with hit after hit across the decade and beyond.
The original lineup featured brothers Brian, Dennis, and Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love, and friend Al Jardine. They were later joined by a number of full-time musicians, most notably Bruce Johnston once Brian took a step back from live performance.
Known for their vocal harmonies, youth-centric lyrics, and musical creativity, they are one of the most influential bands of the rock era.
The Beach Boys captured the southern California youth culture of surfing, cars, and romance, known as the California sound. They were one of the few American rock bands to maintain their commercial success during the British Invasion. In 1966, the Pet Sounds album and the single 'Good Vibrations' elevated the group's status as rock innovators.
And now, a new documentary on Disney+ will delve into the band's history, from their early beginnings, the various tragic occurrences throughout the decades, and where they are now.
To celebrate, Gold's James Bassam caught up with Beach Boys legends Mike and Bruce to hear more about the film, as well as some fascinating stories.
