Brian Wilson is part-time lead vocalist, most often backing vocals within The Beach Boys. Brian was also the brain behind all the arrangement, songwriting and innovative production of their albums. The release of The Beatles U.S version of the Rubber Soul album inspired Brian immensely in the creation of the Pet Sounds album.
