Brian Wilson, who as leader of the Beach Boys and a founder of California rock invented a massively successful pop sound full of harmonies and sunshine, has died at the age of 82.

Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys passed away June 11 at age 82, just two days after fellow Californian Sly Stone of Sly and the Family Stone left us at the same age. We remember Wilson with five Beach Boys flip sides and conclude with a Sly and the Family Stone flip side.
