IT'S BACK TO THE BEACH WITH WILSON

In the pantheon of great American composers, a few names immediately come to mind.
Irving Berlin. Cole Porter. George Gershwin.

But Beach Boys leader Brian Wilson?
Gershwin’s estate certainly believes Wilson belongs on that list. Last month, the composer’s family enlisted the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer to complete some of Gershwin’s unfinished compositions, song fragments left scattered about after Gershwin’s death in 1937.
