This celebration of Beach Boys guiding light Brian Wilson, recorded in March 2001 at New York's Radio City Music Hall, may be the best tribute concert ever. Wilson himself appears toward the end of the 90-minute show; he's game, but after decades of mental problems, he's not what he once was. It's his admirers who take the event to another level. Backed by the remarkable Wondermints, a diverse lineup (Ricky Martin, the Go-Go's, Billy Joel, Aimee Mann and Michael Penn, Wilson Phillips--with Brian's two daughters--and others) perform both obvious ("California Girls") and more obscure ("I Just Wasn't Made for These Times") Wilson material. And then there are Elton John ("God Only Knows"), Vince Gill ("The Warmth of the Sun"), Paul Simon ("Surfer Girl"), Heart's Wilson sisters ("Good Vibrations"), and Carly Simon, David Crosby, and songwriter Jimmy Webb ("In My Room"), who turn in performances that are, quite simply, among the greatest of their careers. Transcendent. --Sam Graham

4 out of 5 stars Music sound is ok.......2007-05-12

The video is good,a lot of nice looking honeys, the music selection is good. However the sound is a little shakey....

2 out of 5 stars Why not include the entire concert?.......2007-02-03

I went to the tribute concert in 2001. It was a tremendous experience and probably the most satisfying event I have ever been to. The concert was almost four hours due to the recording situation. The best part of the show was the Pet Sounds segment which the makers of this DVD have failed on. Pet Sounds was played in its entirety, between each song a different singer would come out. The idea that you knew what song was coming next but didn't know who would be singing it was totally unique. The most entertaining performances of that night are not on this DVD and were not on TV when this originally aired. That is unfortunate to all who were unable to be at the event. Perhaps as with most Beach Boy product, they will rerelease it over and over and keep adding material. I was so disappointed at the lack of respect for the Pet Sounds section that I didn't even buy the DVD yet. I'll wait for the eventual rerelease.

5 out of 5 stars Great Music and Great Performances.......2006-11-17

I am amazed by the quality of this DVD. The Wondermints play on almost every song and are so in tune with the music. Vince Gill does wonderfully on "the Warmth of The Sun" and Surf's Up". His very high range does full justice to these songs. Elton John, Jimmy Webb, Darius Rucker, Matthew Sweet, Mann and Penn, Wilson Sisters and Jubilant Stykes, David Crosby and Wilson Phillips all do justice to Brian's music. The Boy's Choir of Harlem is an added feature. The last few songs are with Brian. He and the Wondermints are glorious.
This is my favorite music DVD. The sound recording and filming are top notch. I wish it were available as a CD too.

5 out of 5 stars A must for Brian and Beach Boys fans.......2005-10-24

Without question, one of the most entertaining events of all time. It is amazing to see all of the great music industry talents who participated in this tribute to Brian Wilson.

5 out of 5 stars A special evening for Brian Wilson.......2005-09-27

For lovers of Brian Wilson and his music this is a marvelous show. So many special stars performed his music that it was a show that made you sit on the edge of your seat. For lovers also of Elton John, Paul Simon, Carly Simon, it also was amazing to see them harmonizing his songs.
