This tale of a summer fling is significant in that it was Carl’s first major lead vocal for The Beach Boys (we’re not counting 1964’s “Pom-Pom Play Girl”). It appeared on the 1965 album Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!), Brian writing in the sleevenotes, “I’m glad I finally wrote a song Carl dug singin’.” He knew his brother well – Carl really grow...
As the 70s progressed, Carl became the de facto leader of The Beach Boys, as reflected in the title of their 1972 album, Carl & The Passions – “So Tough” (it refers to one of Carl’s early groups). He’s the only band member to feature on every track of that album, producing and knitting together a seemingly disparate set of songs. His vocals elevate...
Written by Brian Wilson and the group’s then manager, Jack Rieley, “You Need A Mess Of Help…” made for a powerful opening to Carl & The Passions…, largely thanks to Carl’s powerful production, nimble arrangement and gutsy vocals. About as raucous as The Beach Boys would get, it obviously suited Carl – he really lets rip here.
A cover of The Ronettes’ 1966 single, “I Can Hear Music” marked Carl Wilson’s first hit as producer and arranger, suggesting that he wasn’t the only Wilson brother enamored with Phil Spector’s music. Rather than constructing a dense and imposing Wall Of Sound, Carl opted for an airy, bucolic treatment, his lead vocal gliding over banks of classic B...
Alongside his brother Dennis’ early 70s material, Carl’s contributions to Surf’s Upsuggest a tantalizing alternate route The Beach Boys could have taken. “Long Promised Road” was a reflective and mature demonstration of Carl’s blossoming talent and incredible potential – from downcast verses, his vocals flecked with hard-won experience, to gritty a...
When The Beach Boys upped sticks to the village of Baambrugge, in the Dutch province of Utrecht, to record 1974’s Holland, it seemed to elicit some homesickness in the group, inspiring them to write a batch of songs about their California home. “The Trader” concerned itself with US history – its lyrics, by then manager Jack Rieley, taking in coloni...
Alongside his skills as writer and producer, Brian had an uncanny ability to match songs with their singers. Carl’s ability to dig deep for gutsy, soulful vocals made him a perfect fit for the Frankie Valli-meets-R&B stomper “Darlin’.” The song became a live staple at Beach Boys concerts, with Carl proving that no one sang “Doggone outta sight!” qu...
When Brian Wilson consented to the use of “Surf’s Up” – the most significant part of the SMiLEjigsaw that hadn’t previously been released in some form – for the 1971 album that would take its name, it was Carl who would again take center-stage. Opening the song, his poise is the perfect fit, at once stately and tinged with trepidation, until his sp...
Another Surf’s Up song that saw Carl prove he could match his brother’s flair for sonic invention. “Feel Flows” is a wistful, sun-dappled wonder – all Moog synth textures, stinging guitar solos, free jazz-inspired flutes, and phased backing vocals – that’s a very long way from “Surfin’ Safari.” Carl is at the center of it all, sage-like as the song...
One of the countless masterstrokes that made up “God Only Knows” was Brian selflessly handing lead vocal duties to Carl, after realizing his own voice wasn’t right for the song. As he said in a 1996 interview to promote the Pet Sounds Sessionsbox set: “Well, I thought I was gonna do it. As the song progressed, I said, ‘Hey, I feel kind of natural d...
