Given that his artistic credibility was never in question, Brian Wilson has worked hard in recent years to bring his career back to something approaching success. Along with the solo albums and the Orange Crate Art project that saw him reunited with Van Dyke Parks for the first time since the aborted Smile project, there was his small tour playing the entire Pet Sounds album from 2002 of which this is a recording.
With a band of live/session musicians - Brian's brothers Carl and Dennis have both passed away and one of the few remaining Beach Boys, Mike Love, has had a long-running feud with Brian Wilson that has frequently seen the two of them only talking through their lawyers - Brian took Pet Sounds on the road across Europe and North America. Whilst one suspects the purpose of this tour was to not only capitalise on Pet Sound's critical rehabilitation - its reputation has grown as the years passed - but to fall in love with it himself all over again for, strange as it may seem now, Brian Wilson, for long periods in the seventies and eighties, professed the view that he was rather more fond of the earlier and less arty Beach Boys tracks than those from the Pet Sounds/Smile era.
