my dad passed away last year Brian Wilson was his favourite artist plus the beach boys RIP Dad

Wow was the good. Thanks for posting. I'm only going to watch this a hundred times or so.

Brian Wilson the legend has assembled a fantastic band for this wonderful concert at Glastonbury which has put on so many great shows.

[@AudioFileZ]

As Brian is now, by all accounts no longer able to be musically present we can truly see this gift of revival of Brian Wilson concert as a watershed moment. After decades of various mental challenges Brian found his muse once again in his backing band, The Wondermints. If only for a period of about ten years total we have the proper glimpse of the genius of Brian's music performed once again with precision and accuracy. Sure, Brian isn't able to reclaim his once amazing vocal range - though with the sympathetic and amazing support of this band, and in front of this no less amazing miracle "one-off" sea of humanity, it's once again the sixties with the full power of the songs connecting with a vast sea of humanity gloriously. This is like a gift from above we can all share a piece of. Though, not to my knowledge, ever released on any medium commercially this performance is so spectacular in power that it, to me at least, eclipses the 50th anniversary Beach Boys concerts. There is a palpable, beyond comprehension, connection to this performance and the vast audience present here. I'm, as my Brit brothers and sisters say, gobsmacked. This is a performance and event for the ages and is right up there with Concert for George and The Band's Last Waltz. Please BBC make a pristine version available for all of us to bask in. Yes, I'm passionate about this and want others to share in what is like a gift from above.

The whole set goes on and off iplayer, especially around the time of Glastonbury

This tears of happiness to my eyes,what a legend with a great band,the crowd loved him.

DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS... THE "BEST"👍

[@karenstocks2623]

Simply the best what a fabulous line up Love the beach boys I tried to buy this 2005 glastonbury online cant get it anywhere I watch this every day x

[@ZanderSumner]

The BBC recently showed the full unedited 90 minute set in HD - you may still be able to get it on iPlayer

[@karenstocks2623]

I watched it on I player then they removed it

[@karenstocks2623]

Surely someone on here knows wherein can get the original unedited of Brian wilson at Glastonbury 2005 dvd from pleaae ?

[@johnwerner4925]

Good memories when people could be less than 6-feet apart! Seriously this is one of the best Glastonbury shows I've ever watched and I've watched a few. The music rules here and this band is tighter than tight....actually better than the 50th anniversary tour although I miss Al Jardine just a little II must admit. I've got this show burned to DVD from a post on Usenet that was a digital copy of the BBC broadcast. It's much clearer in video and audio. It's one of my favorites along with Concert For George and The Last Waltz. Yep, it's that great. What a latter-day triumph for Brian and a huge sea of humanity. For the ages!

[@burroughsw5058]

California brought the sun that year he was breathtaking

[@chidell]

The only problem is that at some points in the songs Brian Wilson’s singing isn’t grest

[@chidell]

Great not grest

[@AudioFileZ]

@@chidell True he doesn't get close to those ethereal highs,, but if you've followed him this was a given. That said ,if you really really dig the music and are kind of in awe of anyone who for all practical purposes was one of the finest songwriters/arrangers that has walked the earth but effectively died... then this is an huge triumph.

[@karenstocks2623]

I'm looking for the bbc dvd of this absolute love this I anyone can help I'm.hay to purchase it ??

[@stephb8193]

Wow! Thanks for this! Beach boys and the kinks are my 2 faves! Hopefully Glastonbury be be be back in action real soon! and we all can enjoy some more golden oldies! Glasto f❤️rever!!!! 🇮🇪😉

[@Leonardo2022]

Brian is a genuis!

[@SeahorsesJay]

10:10 the way he threw that inflection into his lead, his singing is so hit and miss in his advanced age but this just proves his could still do it if he really tried

[@LudiCrust.]

This is probably the best he’s sounded since the 60s until 2024.

[@scottsheehan1596]

i saw him in Maine when he first did the Pet Sounds tour.had Al Jardine with him.was an awesome show.

[@MikeHeard-x9t]

what a great perfromance from brian and the wondermints .

[@MIKELIN8]

It makes me sad that The Beach Boys are regarded less in their home country than they are in other parts of the world. Don't get me wrong, many in USA love their music, but few understand how much they contributed to the evolution of popular music. They get it in Britain, where they seem to be regarded as equals to The Beatles. Also, RIP Nicky Wonder.

[@tomjones5650]

True That

[@pauliegambino7832]

Mostly Mike Love's fault. He relegated the Beach Boys to playing legacy. Brian Wilson is the true heart and soul of that band and still writes music to this day.

[@davidkeller2980]

[@jhtompkins7671]

you Brits have always appreciated US musicians more than the Yanks =

[@SeahorsesJay]

It's a little more complex than that to be honest. In the USA The Beach Boys are celebrated as America's band, but as an oldies act - the material between 61 and 65 for its nostalgia and cultural impact. They're big in the states. However, you're right in that their avant-garde material between 65-73 completely went under the radar due to a series of poor public relations and bad decision making - with Mike Love absolutely responsively. However, during that period The Beach Boys continued to shift considerably more albums in Europe than the states!

[@patrickmcgrath5411]

THANK YOU ZANDER❤️

[@ghwinokur]

Unbelievable ! What a masterpiece in Beach Boys history!

[@tmusic409]

I think that this, the first of Brian’s band members, is the best. Great to see Brian energised, sadly seemingly not really engaged in his 2022 shows with Chicago.

[@tomjones5650]

You saw him for the last time in 2022. Oddly in October 2021 I saw him and he did practically all the lead vocals strongly. What happened in the 8 month period is the question? Father Time I guess...

[@tmusic409]

@@tomjones5650 I only saw KZbin videos in 2022, last time I saw Brian live was 2016 at the London Palladium.

[@ReeseChown]

​@@tomjones5650I wish they'd give him a rest already. It sounds like his band is who wants to tour but on the condition that Brian will be on stage to draw the crowd. He's always loved sitting at home doing nothing. Let him do it

[@Quintessentguy]

My eldest brothers were the original (as in, the first) surfers in Sonoma County, CA. We had on the old Heathkit stereo literally every Beach Boys album as they came up. Born in 1954, literally grew up on the Beach Boys. They performed (drunk!) in Santa Rosa in probably 1964. Me eldest bro was probably first in line to get into the brief concert. ❤

[@jolinkarlsson8569]

I was 2️⃣ years old in 2005 but i wish i was there cause i would sing every song word for word thanks to my older sister who raised me on The Beach Boys from a baby

[@madvinyl75]

Pro shot (from the BBC) then recorded to Betamax :D

What a day it must have been. Looked to see if the were any comments from people who'd been there on the day.

[@mancuniancandidatem]

Great Band! That MD on the keyboards did a great job conducting as well as playing and singing his parts. Everybody executing their harmony parts brilliantly on a festival stage, probably with a limited line/sound check. The rhythm section negotiating the tempo changes with ease.

[@gezatherton1071]

I’m used to Brian singing the lead vocals on BB songs that were originally sung by Mike Love, but it’s bizarre to hear him sing Help Me Rhonda!

[@qasanoba]

lol that's true

[@jimlassiter749]

Very Much Appreciated! I was born in 61 & consider myself a child of the 70s so i never really appreciated the BB as i do now - especially as a lifelong weekend warrior songwriter & musician. The creation and growth of music through the 50s - 70s was pure magic. Sadly, much of the (pop) music post 70s to today just continually rips itself off & tries to retread the same cowflop. What is worse (IMHO) is the audience has been so dumbed down that a tune with more than 4 chords is considered to be a miracle. Throw in a key change & the average listener would probably have an aneurysm being unable to fathom this 'strange & new' (dare i say, paradoxical?) form of music...
