Mis favoritos


Brian (He is responsible for all the band's best music. He also has my favorite voice in the band is a huge influence on my own vocal and compositional style.)
Mike (I like his interviews. Obviously the second most important member of the band. He and Al are my favorite non-Brian songwriters in the band.)
Al (Great singer and personality. He's also cute and awkward. I wish a guy like him would ask me out)
Carl (His productions are great, if not his songwriting, and had arguably the best voice in the band. I put Al above him just because I like his personality more.)
Dennis (I like his voice, but don't generally like his songwriting. I actually hate it.)
Bruce (Complete ass and his songwriting is mostly terrible. I do like his voice and what it brings to songs like "At My Window," however)

Brian. Unique, inimitable and any other superlative you'd care to throw in. Dennis and Carl next.

Surprised to see this thread get resurrected, and by none other than Jess!

This is going to be interesting, Wonder if Dennis would make it to second place?

Didn't Dennis refer to his "member" as "The Wood"? If so, then that would be the obvious answer.

Found it: Catch A Wave (Carlin's book) page 221 in a quote from Trish Campo. Incidentally I did vote for Dennis  the first time anyway.

Ok, I'll speak up for some of the "other" guys (i.e., not of the Wilson/Love clan):

Dave Marks is a cool, funny, and very talented guy. If anyone could qualify as the fourth Wilson brother, he should -- he grew up with them and they with him.

Al Jardine is very much the gentleman and has an amazing voice even today.

Can anyone in the BBs hit consistently higher notes than Bruce Johnston? Maybe Brian back in the day, but Bruce can still reach the high ones.

Blondie Chaplin can definitely rock! The Stones' loss is Brian's gain.

Ricky is a great drummer, and I'm pretty sure Bonnie Raitt appreciates him too (at least she said so in concert).



I'm offended.  LOL.  There can only be one 4th Wilson Bro.  Anyone else who claims that title is obviously an imposter.

Oh, and I'll keep casting my vote for Carl every time this poll is resurrected.

There's a terribly juvenile observation I could make, using the words "member" and "Dennis".

But I won't.  Grin

See, I would never understand what is so funny about this Murry quote. The whole HMR sesh is one big disaster. Then again, hearing Brian mocking his dad ("Syn-co-pate it, syn-co-pate it") was really cool.
