Brian Wilson

Brian Wilson (born June 20, 1942 in Hawthorne, California) is an American pop musician, best known as a founding member of and the main producer, composer, and arranger for the Beach Boys.

Wilson's creativity reached its heights during the mid-1960s with songs like "Good Vibrations", the Pet Sounds album (which, according to Paul McCartney, heavily inspired The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band) and the unreleased Smile project. Wilson quit working with the Beach Boys on a regular basis after the release of The Beach Boys in 1985.

Another Brian Wilson is a Labour MP in the UK.
