I think the Smile thing is great. It's even a greater story. The man was plagues by so many demons. His father, drugs, a troubled marriage, trying to compete with the Beatles, and that total asshole Mike Love.
Those guys should have shut up and thanked their luck....like Ringo.

I fell deeply in love with Smile for so many different reasons, not the least of which was Wilson's story and the fact that it took 30 years to finish the album.
I gave a copy to everyone in my family for Christmas...from my 70 year old relatives to my 4 year old nephew. Some 'got it', others didn't. All for different reasons.
