    The mad genius of the Beach Boys is surfing on! 82 just like Sly Stone yesterday...it's the end of an era. Warmth of the sun is my favorite Brian Wilson song.

    That was more a parody. In fact White Album had several parodies (Mother Nature's Son was Donovan/.

    Both Brian Wilson and Sly Stone had more than their share of demons. For that matter so did John Lennon.
