Bedroom Tapes:
Will we ever get those 60th Reunion songs released that were recorded during the making of the Disney+ doc? C'mon Frank, just sitting on the good stuff. Someone's gotta make this happen!

Can you tell me more? What songs?
Bedroom Tapes:
It's been mentioned several times that a couple of their classics (Barbara Ann, Their Hearts Were Full of Spring and so on) were recorded during the Paradise Cove segment of the doc.

This is absolutely heart shattering.
It's not overstating it to say that this man, his soul touching music, and the incredible bandmates he made it with have been the one one constant for me through the good times and the bad.
From the annual pilgrimages to the beach, to the early highs of meeting and dating Jessica and the ultimate day of our wedding, and the lowest of lows when I had nowhere to go, but my car to probably the depths of my absolute rock bottom when we lost Bloomie last October. "Lay Down Burden" from Brian's 1998 album, Imagination was the first song we listened to after potting him in our snake plant, so that some part of him would live on.
This man had the very rare gift of being able to connect with literally any emotion human beings are capable of, from The Beach Boys' earliest records to tragically unknown gems like "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times," "'Til I Die," "The Night Was So Young," "My Diane," and "Summer's Gone," just to name a few, I've never had a musical experience that felt like the artist literally knew me inside and out like I did with The Beach Boys and Brian's solo and other outside work.
I was raised on The Beach Boys during their mid-80's to early 90's renaissance and was lucky enough to see Brian's Pet Sounds Symphonic Tour at the State Theatre in Easton on July 7, 2000 and to see the "full" reunion at Bethel Woods on June 17, 2012, and left neither of them disappointed in the slightest.
The music he created with his brothers, friends, and cousin is truly timeless, and though the man behind most of their magic is now gone from this plain of existence, the songs remain and will do so through the whole of humanity.
There are a lot of milestones to look forward to when raising children, but honestly, one of the biggest I look forward to is introducing our future children to the music of Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys.
Love and mercy, Brian, Love and mercy.
