Title: Unsolved Mysteries: Dennis Wilson Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on February 04, 2019, 11:36:10 AM I recently saw this on YouTube. It was interesting, but certain things I never new about before. I know they got some facts wrong. They claimed Dennis came up with the name Beach Boys. Not true. But it also said Dennis had a nervous breakdown in his early 60s. Is this true? We all know Brian has had them, but never knew Dennis did. A lot of the 'mystery' surrounding his death was old news. The YouTube channel that shows this is called Mr Galikonacous. Not sure I spelled the last name right.
Title: Re: Unsolved Mysteries: Dennis Wilson Post by: NOLA BB Fan on February 04, 2019, 12:18:48 PM Scott Wilson's book had a reference to Dennis being sent home from the tour during the 60s and that he was distraught. I don't know any more than that.

The Get Down never heard with Murray Saul and Dennis Wilson https://buzzardbook.wordpress.com/2008/05/12/282/ Title: Re: Unsolved Mysteries: Dennis Wilson Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on February 05, 2019, 05:49:33 AM It's always interesting to discover something new. After all these years of watching documentaries and reading all the books, even the ones on Dennis, I was never aware of Dennis having nervous breakdowns. Maybe I had read it and forgot about it.
Title: Re: Unsolved Mysteries: Dennis Wilson Post by: wild neon sins on February 06, 2019, 12:52:46 PM Sounds like the same video that turned up on another video streaming site that's literally just a renamed rip of the Autopsy: last hours of Dennis Wilson documentary from 2017, only with the uploaders credits tagged onto the beginning & end.
Earlier discussion: http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php?topic=24916.10 post with links to grabs from Scott's book re Dennis having breakdowns/panic attacks http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php/topic,24916.msg606781.html#msg606781 random oddity - there's contemporary news reports/obits on Dennis from '83 claiming he came up with the name Beach Boys so that's an historical mistake. |
