Carl is singing at an event of a close family friend where he was a guest. The location is a country club. The position of the band stand that was determined by management and the band that worked the event, was awkward with no other options due to the lack of space.

Love this! Stripped down so you can really hear the pure essence of Carl and the song, which is the most important thing (despite the usual lovely arrangement). Wish I'd been there!

I just watched him sing this as a young man, and now this later version. What a sweet, pure performance.

Got to see Brian sing this at a music industry event, where the Beatles were given a video award, then I was given a special journalism award, then Brian came out and did God Only Knows, solo, with just a keyboard. It was one of the great moments for me. Brian left the whole place in tears.

Carl Wilson was the thread that held the Beach Boys together; a serious musician, a great arranger and an outstanding vocalist with an incredible range. Some of his best recording include "Steamboat" (from Carl and the Passions), "Surf's Up", "Caroline No" and the entire 1974 recording "Beach Boys In Concert" which is by far one of the best live albums of the twentieth century.

There was no better or purer voice in rock music than Carl Wilson. He is so sorely missed it is beyond description. Taken way too soon!

This awesome video really makes me get so excited to see our late Carl singing God Only Knows, because he had such a beautiful angelic voice that touches deep inside my heart and it gives me tears of joy when I think that he's with God now as another great angel that will always be in my mind forever and it's an unforgettable song which I love very much!

Carl's goal was to share his brother's music. Period. It didn't matter if it was in a restaurant, prison or hospital.

Yes kids, before autotune and computers there were great artists that actually played their instrument and sang. Miss this guy.
