A heartfelt goodbye from us here at WMTR to one of the greats...

I am sure I will get flak for this, calling them the best there ever was, but in my mind, Brian Wilson was the Mastermind behind so many others' musical creativity over the years,

WMTR is saddened to hear about the passing of a true visionary...

Brian Wilson, the Beach Boys' fragile leader whose genius for melody, arrangements, and wide-eyed self-expression inspired "Good Vibrations," "California Girls" and other summertime anthems and made him one of the world's most influential recording artists, has died at 82.

The Beach Boys rank among the most popular groups of the rock era, with over 30 singles in the Top 40 and worldwide sales exceeding 100 million.

Wilson moved and fascinated fans and musicians long after he stopped having hits. In his later years, Wilson and a devoted entourage of younger musicians performed "Pet Sounds" and his restored opus, "Smile," before worshipful crowds in concert halls. Meanwhile, The Go-Go's, Lindsey Buckingham, Animal Collective, and Janelle Monáe were among a wide range of artists who emulated him, whether as a master of crafting pop music or as a pioneer of pulling it apart.
