That's hilarious! Funny cause it's true. The fact that he believed that Pet Sounds was "ego music" and told Brian not to "fuck with the formula" proves that he has no artistic integrity what-so-ever. Real artists grow and evolve.

On a similarly related note, I'm learning how to play Surf's Up on piano...thus teaching me somewhat how to play piano. It's very exciting!

GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!

This is from www.brianwilson.com so it's official, not just a rumor:

--------------------------------------------------------------------

BRIAN WILSON READIES ALL-NEW RECORDING OF LEGENDARY "SMILE"

Long-awaited Masterpiece to be Released by Nonesuch Records on September 28

Recording Follows Triumphant "SMILE" Performances in Europe With U.S. Tour Planned For The Fall

Thirty-seven years after its anticipated release, an all-new studio recording of SMiLE - often referred to as the most famous unreleased album in history - will be made available worldwide by Nonesuch Records on September 28, 2004. SMiLE will be produced by Brian Wilson and will feature the ten-member band that has supported him on tour over the past five years, augmented by The Stockholm Strings and Horns.

Wilson and lyricist Van Dyke Parks, who collaborated on the original SMiLE session in 1966-67, listened together to the 37-year old tapes in November 2003, following Brian's announcement of his intention to complete and perform SMiLE in a series of concerts in London. Acting as Brian and Van DykeŐs musical secretary, Darian Sahanaja, of Wilson's touring band, began preparing the music for performance. This led to Wilson and Parks creating new material to make the concerts possible.

The public premiere of the finished SMiLE took place at the Royal Festival Hall in London on February 20, 2004 to overwhelming response. The Los Angeles Times said: "What we do know now is that Wilson and Parks created a glorious piece of music whose grand ambition is outstripped only by its inherent beauty and cumulative power." In London, The Guardian referred to SMiLE's "groundbreaking complexity and sophistication" and wrote it seemed "the grandest of American symphonies," while the Daily Telegraph added, "Leonard Bernstein once proclaimed Brian Wilson one of the greatest composers of the 20th century: he was not wrong." The Independent summarized the feeling in the hall: Ňwe knew weŐd witnessed a miracle of sorts."

Wilson is currently finishing the new recording of SMiLE at Los Angeles' Sunset Sound studio.

2004 promises to be the year of Brian Wilson. In addition to SMiLE, Wilson is releasing his first solo studio album in over six years, Gettin' In Over My Head (street date: 6/22) which features guest appearances by Eric Clapton, Elton John, Paul McCartney and his late brother Carl Wilson. He intends to perform music from both albums this summer on a UK and European tour and will embark on a U.S. tour in the fall.

Earlier this month Brian Wilson was named a BMI ICON recipient. Wilson is the first songwriter to receive both the PresidentŐs Award and the ICON award.

Additionally, Wilson, along with the late composer/conductor/arranger Henry Mancini, and violinist Sarah Chang will be the 2004 Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame inductees. The opening night concert on Friday, June 25 will feature performances by Wilson and Chang, special appearances by Music Matters spokesperson Josh Groban, Andy Williams, Monica Mancini, and Wilson Phillips, as well as other surprise guests.

Interesting...can't wait to see what it becomes. I still would love to see a box set of all the old SMiLE sessions.

Wow, that's great news. I figured he'd probably make some kind of Smile recording, but I thought it'd be a live show.
