This is almost a half hour of three separate interviews with Brian Wilson that CBS Sunday Mornings did over time.
There was a special aired Sunday - honoring the Beach Boys - I am not sure if it was planned because of his death or already scheduled and a coincidence - but the performances were great and it was great to see the Beach Boys honored as they watched from a balcony with a full room in attendance, singing along and clapping, and fully enjoying this iconic group from years gone by.

I don't know why I would have thought of them, and it's a little weird to me that I now see he has died.
