Brian Wilson’s work with The Beach Boys made him one of pop music’s true geniuses.

His songs, including Surfin’ USA, California Girls, I Get Around, Good Vibrations and God Only Knows, have become classics.

His vision, incorporating complex melodies, intricate harmonies and avant-garde themes, was a watershed in popular music, moving it away from the boy-meets-girl narrative that had dominated the genre, but the pressure of fame combined with increasing dependence on drugs created a prison from which Wilson found it increasingly difficult to escape.

Against all the odds, he re-emerged in the new millennium to delight his old fans and captured a new generation of music lovers.
