Thanking you, Carl, for being the person you were with your class, kindness and talent you brought to the world of music. I'm also thanking my lucky stars that I was fortunate enough to have the pleasure of your company for far too few precious moments over the years. Happy birthday.

The soul of the Beach Boys. As much as we love and covet the idea of the surviving members reuniting, we must always remember that it cannot be, it will not be anything close to the same as when Carl was keeping the summer alive with a blend of the band's early hits and their greatest artistic achievements.

He was taken from us much too soon, and if he were with us today, I am confident that the factions in the band would be significantly less toxic.

Fondest birthday greetings and thank you for so much.  I never got to meet you on Earth other than through your music.  From all accounts, you were a gentleman and a gentle man.  You fought the good fight as best you could.

I was honored to shake hands with your brother Brian and your old friends Al and Blondie on Dennis's birthday.  I'm sure they miss you in ways we'll never know.

Rest in peace.  As long as your music lives, you'll live in those of us who listen to it.

I can't believe it's been almost twenty years!  Shocked I remember the day I found out he passed. The world became a little colder that day.

71 years ago today it all began.  'There' when it counted...as the leader live on stage...and as an important muse for Brian to bounce his creative production ideas off of during the glory days, Carl Wilson's time to really shine in all aspects of the bands' evolution happened between 1967 and the tail end of 1973.  Carl helped to set the Beach Boys up as a real and meaningful force and one of the TOP touring Rock [and roll] acts in the world.

And then...the infighting for control began to unfurl and subsequently unravel what had been SO outstanding.

Happy Birthday Carl Wilson.  Your name and legacy live on...the contributions all recorded for people to see and hear.  Thank you.

I'm glad I lived during time when Carl lived. There's overlap (Dennis died before I arrived).
As we see, Carl's legacy continues to be. Many fans say GOK can't be beat by anybody. 100% true - be it major artists or indie artists, they didn't get it right as Carl did. There's 100+ covers - obvious & obscure - but nobody sang it equally well & beautifully. They right about shouldn't even sing it in the 1st place. But, at the same time, it shows they really liked the song in the whole, including Carl's lead, that they were tempted to try it.
Carl will be in old-timers & new fans' brains & hearts for many years by.
