SMiLE - The Rise, Fall and Resurrection of Brian Wilson

For almost 40 years, from its genesis in 1967 to its eventual live unveiling at London’s Royal Festival Hall in 2004, the album SMiLE has been written into music mythology. SMiLE: The Rise, Fall and Resurrection of Brian Wilson documents the history of the album, drawing on interviews with collaborator Van Dyke Parks, Brian’s band (especially Darian Sahanaja), close friends, family, and many others who were part of its story. In this book Beach Boys aficionado David Leaf, presents the seminal account of the real story behind SMiLE and, in an audiobook exclusive, reflects on Brian Wilson’s life and genius in the aftermath of his passing.
