Today's Guest: Kent Crowley, author of The Beach Boys Carl Wilson biography, Long Promised Road.
KENT CROWLEY podcast excerpt: "Murray Wilson, father of Brian, Dennis and Carl, was a very damaged individual. He, too, grew up in an abusive household with an abusive father. So what didn't happen in the Wilson household -- until Carl showed up -- was you never had anyone to break that cycle. That's why there was such an emphasis on Carl Wilson being the caregiver and the caretaker... The one thing that brought that family together was music.”
Key interview moments:
• 3:30 Murray Wilson, father of three of The Beach Boys, Brian Wilson, Dennis Wilson, and Carl Wilson, was himself the product of an abusive household;
• 19:10 Carl Wilson doesn't get enough credit as a guitar hero, according to biographer Kent Crowley;
• 32:10 Crowley cites examples of Carl Wilson's "wonderful sense of humor."
