Malibu Sunset



A not particularly essential little ditty, but an early non-Beach Boys Brian Wilson production from mid-1963 that may have been written by Brian and Gary Usher or Usher and Roger Christian or Brian and Christian - or just Brian. Intended as a demo for Andy Williams, the tape was supposedly 'lost'. Background vocals are more than likely Brian and Usher, but the lead is allegedly Glen Campbell (though I suspect it's Usher).

    It sounds very calming. :)

    That's DEFINITELY NOT Glen Campbell - he would never sing as badly as that!

    Highly evocative ballad. I take issue with the characterization as "not particularly essential". It is *absolutely* essential to any Brian Wilson collection.
