The second Genie

Actually getting to Brian Wilson as the creative genius of the Beach Boys. It is often overlooked that even his little brother Dennis Wilson - after he had to put his drumsticks injury from the hand - some excellent songs are succeeded, which he could put on Beach Boys plates: eg "Cuddle Up" to "Carl And The Passions "or" Only With You "on" Holland ". On "Pacific Ocean Blue" his talent finally comes into its own! Is Brian, the man of rich melodies, harmonies and surprising virtuosity set Chorsätze, so Dennis is the specialist for 1000 meters deep ballads and congealed in musical emotions - in Cinemascope! Songs like "Moonshine", "thougts Of You", "Time" or "End Of The Show" reached an emotional depth that is unparalleled in rock music.

Dennis secret lies partly in the limitations of his medium: He's just a moderate pianist, and his limited voice is pulled through alcohol and drug excesses affected.

But it is precisely these limitations enable him apparently to deal on the essence of his music: The presentation of basic human emotions like sadness, fear, hope and love.

The Legacy Edition is now available and the remaining unfinished album fragment "Bamboo", which inferior to "Pacific Ocean Blue" in hardly anything.

The "Rolling Stone" rated "POB" even as one of the major "forgotten" (because no longer available) albums. On record fairs this rarity was traded to huge sums. Thanks to Sony / BMG that finally there is this official edition, which keeps the memory alive of the second genius of the Beach Boys!
