His friend David Marks had guitar lessons by John Maus and it inspired him to do the same and get a guitar at the age of 12. Thanks to the Wilson family's group singing, he also shaped his tenor voice. As a Beach Boy, Carl was relegated to instrumental and backing vocals duties along other members such as Dennis or Al Jardine. After some rare lead vocals in the band's early career as well as some instrumentals written by him, he had his vocal breakthrough on the Pet Sounds masterpiece "God Only Knows". While Brian's mental health was deteriorating due to Smile's troubled production, he had more involvement in the band's creative output, starting with Wild Honey and reaching a peak on Surf's Up where he composed his first songs "Long Promised Road" and "Feel Flows". He was also the band's musical director and, figuratively, the band's leader during the seventies until drinking and substance use started to become a hindrance on his life. It was during this time that the band began to splinter into two camps with he and brother Dennis on one side while cousin Mike Love and Al Jardine made up the other.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The eighties marked the beginning of his solo career which was also a brief hiatus from the band's touring (which he compared to Las Vegas shows). After releasing two solo albums, he came back to the band and remained as a performer more than a songwriter. One notable event, however, was his discontent with Brian's "Paley Sessions" which may have been one of the reasons why they were shelved. Despite having lung and brain cancer, he kept touring with The Beach Boys until 1996 and died in February 1998, just two weeks after his mother.Carl remains known for his vocal talent, being dubbed "Voice of an angel" thanks to his performance on "God Only Knows". He was also a major internal element in the band's career and his death has been regarded as a major breaking point in the group's split. | |

Vocal Evolution | |
Carl Wilson (Music) / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: After more than 30 years of touring, his vocal range hardly changed and his lung cancer didn't affect his voice on his last concert performances. | |

Carl Wilson (Music) / int_87ab7f69 | comment |
Sharp-Dressed Man: He always wore a suit on stage since the early eighties. It often clashed in comparison to Mike, Al, Brian, and Dennis who always wore casual clothing. | |

Drunken Master | |
Carl Wilson (Music) / int_da484c4a | comment |
Drunken Master: His late-seventies live performances are notable for his drunken singing where his voice gained more vibrato. This performance of "God Only Knows" has him completly drunk and yet he doesn't sing off-key or off-tempo. | |
