     I am not a Beach Boys fan, but saw a news story about Brian Wilson and
his death.  This is what I gathered from it.

     Brian Wilson was the original DRUMMER for the Beach Boys.  He was the
one who gave the band their name.  He quit the band and made a solo album
in '80 or '81.  His reason for quitting was a lack of new material.  He had
recently rejoined the band, but I don't know if he played with them last
summer or not...
