Beach Boys- Surf's Up
Besides being the primary composer in The Beach Boys, he also functioned as the band's main producer and arranger. Wilson's life was derailed by years of drug abuse and mental illness, contributing to tensions with the band. After years of treatment and recuperation, he began a solo career in 1988.

I'm unfamiliar with any solo work by Brian. He released solo albums??
I learn something new every day.
Thanks, Punch.
