Brian Wilson - Jim Pewter Interview 1974 (audio)
Sheriff John Stone:
When you hear these interviews with Brian during that period, don't you wish that you could go back in time and kidnap Brian - a la Landy - and take him to some retreat where he could've gotten help and avoided the year 1975 and everything that went with it. In my mind, I keep repeating the phrase "that was salvageable", whether it applies to Brian's voice, his mind, or the Beach Boys' career (artistically) at that time.

Yeah 1973-74 was the last time he could have been helped emerging unscathed as it were.

This is cracking- nice one.
Are you still going to upload the Dennis @ Brother interview you mentioned?
Yep. That one and a few others.
Btw, if anyone has any other 60's - early 70's BW interviews to contribute, let me know and I'll be glad to upload it.
Mike Eder - are you aware of any other audio interviews out there?
The only other clips I can find is the '68 car interview, & a short clip of Bruce, Danny Hutton & BW calling in to a radio station in England right around the time of the Surf's Up album release. Brian says all of one or two words, and the quality is absolutely terrible. Interesting nonetheless.

Great picture with this upload, by the way.
Makes me wonder- did Van Dyke Parks get f***ed up with the rest of them? You always hear of him being part of that famous gang of LA partiers, but somehow I can't imagine him getting DESTROYED. Should have asked him that when I met him ;)
he seemed more like the type who would take drugs for transcendent experiences, as opposed to just getting f***ed up. plus the uppers. but again, those don't really do any type of destroying except to your nervous system over long periods of use.
nobody can naturally look this happy:
This is as close as humanly possible of a man looking like a giraffe.

There is an Aussie or UK interview with all of them in 1964 that I think has been booted. The 3 Silver Platter Service interviews are out there from 64-67. Brian did do other interviews pre 1976, it's just a matter of tracking them down. That Jack Lloyd fellow mentioned doing an interview with Brian in the late sixties for a history of rock series. Maybe he still has the tape. He says in the book Brian was in a very good and talkitive mood.
