More Press For "Brian Wilson Reimagines Gershwin"
By DJ M on August 11th, 2010
In Brian Wilson/B. Boys
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY "Hearing the architect of 1960s 'teenage symphonies to God' cover the symphonically inclined George Gershwin is a kick, if not always a revelation. On Brian Wilson Reimagines Gershwin, easy-listening Brian shows up more than weirdo Wilson, and when it comes to doing '' 'S Wonderful'' as a light bossa nova, 's just okay. But 'They Can't Take That Away From Me' remade as a 'California Girls''-style shuffle is too novel to pass up. B+"
NOW TORONTO "On this adoring tribute to composer George Gershwin, [Brian] Wilson is a different Boy than he was in those dark days of the 70s. At 68, he finally sounds revitalized, even better than on his solo recording of Smile in 2004."
