Trying to think... not sure I've seen a pic of him post 1967. He gained a ton of weight towards the end.
Actually yeah 1967 is the latest. Weird so many years he wasn't in photos we've seen. Of course things like the Iowa 1973 session only recently showed up so I bet there is some.

Not sure but one of Getty Images shows Murry (written incorrectly as "Murray") standing with The Beach Boys (except Brian), all leaning to an orange car. Carl in a swamp green shirt. The date says "16 Jun 1968". While The BBs look indeed very 1968-ish, Murry seems fake, to my eyes. Sth. about the quiff is not real Wilson-ey. And overall I suspect it's not Murry at all.

I just got Ian and Jon's book, and that picture of Carl at one of his last shows really hurt. I had read it was bad, but...damn.  Sad If there are other pictures of him looking like that, I'm glad I haven't seen them. Same with any audience videos that may exist.

Yeah, got the book today and that photo really made me sad. What a brave man to play a show under these circumstances.

Not only did he play, he sounded as if nothing was wrong with him.

This may have been addressed before, but so many of the later photos of Dennis, especially after 1981, have him tilting his head to the left . While some of the photos just make him look endearing (holding his baby boy, looking at Brian, etc.), it just seems to be too frequent. Was this due to an injury? The reported beating that he took from Mike's brother and Rocky?

Now that you mention it, that is kind of weird. I didn't realize there were so many pictures of him like that until you pointed it out.

There is a picture of Dennis that I've never seen before in this video, at about 36 seconds in. It looks to be from around 1983-ish. He has his head tilted to the side. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enpW2NLY6q8&hd=1

At 1:49 there's a photo where he tilts his head to the other side. That's much earlier, of course, but maybe he liked tilting his head?

Maybe he had water in his ears and tried to get it out? I'll check it out as soon as I get Jon's book.

http://sfgiantsphotos.mlblogs.com/tag/beach-boys/

Some of those are mis-labeled:  the ones with Carl on the left (as we see it) are 1982 (the only year he stood on that side of the stage, at least since the mid-'70s), and the ones with him on the right (as we see it) are 1983.

I got very confused here because for some reason I had it in my head Dennis died in '81.

Now that that's cleared up, I must say great work here! Some great shots [if heartbreaking].

Hope it's ok bumping the thread, sorry if it isn't.

On another note, I was browsing through a Beach Boys Agallery somebody had posted on Facebook, and there was a close up shot of Dennis wearing sunglasses, on what seemed to be a boat. The caption had the picture dated as being from 1983. In the picture Dennis's beard was almost completely white. I have looked all over for it, but I cant find it anywhere now. Does anybody know of the picture I'm talking about?

You've probably found it by now but I'm guessing this is the photo - sad pic.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Rocker, my thoughts exactly. He still looks pretty cool and "presentable" here, like the genuine rock star that he was.

Dennis looks as good there as some of his contemporaries of the time (John Lennon looked about like that in 1980).

If that picture is indeed from 1983, then Dennis looks surprisingly not too bad. I’ve seen photos and footage of him from 1981 and 1982 where he looks far worse.
