Brian Wilson: The Troubled Genius of The Beach Boys

As a founding member of The Beach Boys, Brian Wilson led a music revolution that went far beyond the ‘60s “California sound” or even pop music generally. But fame and success carry a price. And for Wilson, the price he paid was his mental health and later physical well-being, as well. Substance abuse further complicated his life. In this 1991 interview Wilson looks back on his life and career as he talks about his memoir.
