Early in The Beach Boys’ career, it had become apparent that the majority of the lustful energy stirred up at their gigs was aimed squarely at the animated figure behind the drum kit. It made sense, then, to take advantage of Dennis’ heartthrob status by having him sing lead vocals on a 1965 single that would open The Beach Boys Today!album – a sto...
Dennis was also called upon to sing lead on … Today!’s closing song proper, the meandering and lovely ballad “In The Back Of My Mind.” Dennis was an inspired choice: his soulful, plaintive vocals bring added depth to one of the group’s most vulnerable early songs. Fans who screamed to “Do You Wanna Dance?” swooned to this one, an early indication o...
The first Dennis-penned song to be released (initially as the B-side to “Friends,” in May 1968, and, the month after, on the Friends album), “Little Bird” was a co-write with the poet Stephen Kalinch and featured an uncredited helping hand from Brian. Musically, it’s brooding, with sunny intervals, and owes a clear debt to “Child Is The Father Of T...
The opening track of Sunflowerwas a heady, soulful rocker that saw Dennis deliver one of his finest non-ballad vocals for the group over an energetic, irresistible groove. The lyrics may amount to one massive come-on, but when it’s this much fun, we’re not complaining.
While the June 1969 single “Breakaway” was a hit for The Beach Boys, its B-side, “Celebrate The News,” is arguably the better song. Co-written by Dennis and his pal, songwriter Gregg Jakobsen, it shifts masterfully through the gears until the ecstatic mantra, “I’ve got news for you, there ain’t no blues,” beckons in a rampaging end section, complet...
A propulsive, funk-driven stormer of a song, with lyrics by Bob Burchman, a poet acquaintance of Dennis’, “It’s About Time” was the first song recorded after the band’s new label, Warner Reprise, had rejected an early iteration of the album that would become Sunflower. Concerns that the group were not “contemporary” enough were quickly disproven by...
Originally recorded for a 1971 solo album that failed to materialize, “Cuddle Up” was re-recorded when The Beach Boys – short of material for a follow-up to Surf’s Up – came calling. One of a batch of songs co-written with Daryl Dragon, of Captain And Tennille, “Cuddle Up” was a highlight of The Beach Boys’ 1972 album, Carl And The Passions – “So T...
The Beach Boys’ 1969 album, 20/20, is a disjointed affair perhaps best thought of as a collection of distinct and disparate songs pulled together. “Be With Me” was the pick of Dennis’ contributions: an opulent arrangement pulled down to Earth by a tender vocal that announced the arrival of a remarkable talent. Check out the 2001 rarities set, Hawth...
This stand-out from The Beach Boys’ 1970 album, Sunflower, sees Dennis at his most direct and loveable – a puppy-dog-eyed declaration of eternal faithfulness. The production is elegant and sumptuous, with beatific backing vocals from The Beach Boys (Brian, in particular – just check the fade-out). But it’s Dennis’ lead vocal that steals the show. W...

This list is an attempt to document every song recorded and released under the name of Beach Boys band member Dennis Wilson, whether on an album, single, compilation or anthology album (not necessarily songs written by him).
10. Apr. 2023 · Tragically, Dennis Wilson was also the first of the original Beach Boys to pass away, as he died on December 28, 1983, just weeks after turning 39 years old. While most fans are aware that he died after drowning at Marina Del Rey, California, the last few days of his life — and especially the hours right before his death — still ...
28. Okt. 2021 · In 1977, Dennis Wilson wrote, and produced his first, and only completed, studio album called, Pacific Ocean Blue. Reminiscent of his peaceful organ playing on “Good Vibrations” eleven years earlier, the record evoked a harmonious soulfulness decidedly incongruent with the publicly mercurial man.
