As his second official solo album, Imagination is a stronger record than its predecessor. Brian Wilson is singing better and his writing is more assured, filled with gorgeous arrangements that others may replicate but never quite match. That doesn't quite erase the suspicion that it could have been better, however. Sessions with the respected power pop producer Andy Paley were hailed as Wilson's best material in years, though the collaboration didn't happen. Wilson, allegedly on the advice of his wife, decided to work with Joe Thomas, a former wrestler determined to make inroads in the music business. Thomas steered Wilson toward a slick, overly produced sound straight out of the late '80s, filled with sterile surfaces and synthesizers that hide the genuine musical attributes of the album. Listen closely and it's possible to hear a handful of songs that are startlingly beautiful. Wilson's writing may not be as magical as his '60s peak, but there are moments thaEntertainment Weekly (6/19/98, p.74) - "...Wilson, the vocally rejuvenated Beach Boy auteur, trades in whimsy for effervescence here and the sunlit results are gladdening." - Rating: B
Q (4/00, p.117) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...relies to some extent on the fact that you know who Brian Wilson is....IMAGINATION is his most consistent effort since [1965's PET SOUNDS]."

Customer Imagination Reviews 




Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Outstanding Effort!
Brian's Imagination CD is thoroughly enjoyable throughout - but the first four tracks are easily the most listenable and impressive. I enjoy Brian's solo work more than I did the Beach Boys! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
