@75DrummerBoy are you fucking kidding.Its revisionist bullshit and the way they presented "Pet Sounds" and "Smile' was laughable all the way down to disgracefull.Really Pal,I dont get you
"Dennis was probably more musically with it than me or any of other guys in the whole band; he was one of the best singers and he wrote really good music... I never dreamed, when I used to know him as a kid when we were brothers, I never dreamed he would grow up to be a great person in music...He wrote FOREVER, he wrote SAN MIGUEL...He wrote some wonderful songs." (Brian Wilson, 2007)
his dad was such a hardass to him.. i wish he could have worked thru whatever he was dealing with. he was a rare talent and he wasnt around long enough for it to be appreciated.
dennis's solo album is beast. it's too bad he wasn't able take over the band once brian left. woulda been great for dennis and brian to write together.
big shame dennis messed his voice up towards the end of his life. if he could have sang some of later songs the way he sang forevever they would really have been somthing
Mattatack I have completed the upload of both parts of the Beach Boys An American Band. If there is an email I can post you the links to I will be happy to share the download with you.
no way did that really happen like that, dennis callin' up MURRAY out of all people to play him his new ballad...NO way- you cant pigeonhole the personalities of the beach boys in a mini-series, instead they abc or whomever should of just replayed a concert
Gary Griffin put the tracks together just for the film. It's beautiful isn't it.
There's so much of Dennis' music like this that we haven't heard yet. A new cd set of Dennis's Pacific Ocean Blue and the unreleased Bambu is coming out in stores in May. Watch for it if you love Dennis Wilson's music.
@caseybritton The piano track was recorded specifically for the film but there is an a capella mix of Forever on The Beach Boys Hawthorne, CA 2 CD set.
thanks for the posting. i've been looking for part 2 of this movie since it first aired. i have the first half on VHS. anymore of it you'd care to post would be greatly appreciated!
to tsandtss, Where on You Tube, is this movie found ? I also have searched literally everywhere, trying to find it. When it came out, I was so disraught over Carl's death, I could not bring myself to see it; what a mistake! Everyone says it was beautifully done, especially Nick Stabile as Dennis. Wolfsky9
@georgedelarge EGAD!! Thats blaspheme.Oh well...to each his own I guess.Always loved the Album version.In fact its probably my favorite song on Sunflower
I really wish this movie was on DVD!!!

@DILOMUSIC8 Very accurate,about 90%(and I am probably being very conservative here)of this movie didnt happen

Nick Stabile is Dennis Wilson.
Not sure how you can watch this scene without crying, without falling for Dennis, for Nick.
The highlight of this fine film.
Thanks for posting.

This movie has easily the greatest dialogue I've ever heard, I agree with iws2epaul, spark1896, and tsandtss, hope someone uploads the rest.
"So um, I see you're still uh driving that old T-Bird."
"Yeah she's like a mistress...you can't get rid of her--"
"--I stole it from you once. You uh...you beat the crap out of me."
"Yeah well, we all do things that we're not too proud of. I'll tell you what though, she's yours."
