Pet sounds has to be one of the most perfect records made

Oh no.. that's another tough one

RIP

Brian completely reinvented 60's music when the Beach Boys came out

RIP to one of the finest song writers

Really really sad news.

He was a total one of a kind musical genius when it came to harmonies and chord structure and progression.

I think it was bassist Carol Kaye (in the fantastic Wrecking Crew documentary) who recalled him in the studio during the Pet Sounds sessions, teaching a large group of session musicions their parts individually by singing or humming it to them.
He already knew in his head exactly how all those parts would work and sound once they were played together.

RIP Brian.
