Art that shook the world - S02E02 - The Beach Boys Pet Sounds (20th July 2002) VHSrip (mpeg)

This torrent was uploaded from www.TheBox.bz (signup is open and free) - the home of all British TV

Mark Lamarr explores the impact of the Beach Boys' influential album Pet Sounds, asking why Brian Wilson : the man behind the music : all but disappeared soon after its release. Hailed as an instant classic by contemporaries, including Eric Clapton and Paul McCartney, the programme assesses the appeal of the innovative songs, and the price Wilson had to pay to bring his harmonic vision to fruition

Starts off with a Brian Wilson sitting in front of his piano saying "listen to Pet Sounds with earphones in the dark". Great interviews of Brian as he talks about his father and music. Mary Wilson (his first wife), Eric Clapton and many others are interviewed. The Pet Sounds tour in 2002 is shown at the the end and the credits start with Brian singing 'God Only Knows'. There is short history about the band at the start and also what happened to Brian and the Beach Boys after Pet Sounds.
