"Brian Wilson is not just a survivor, he's a champion and an American treasure."
Product Description
The album that marries the vision of two men who shaped the image of modern California - Brian Wilson & Walt Disney. In this release, Brian re-imagines classics from the span of the Disney Music catalogue, from "Heigh-Ho" and "Whistle While You Work" from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to "We Belong Together" from Toy Story 3.

Okay...this is simple enough: if you are fans of Disney music and the Beach Boys, you will highly likely really enjoy this album. I know I did! Brian Wilson scores with this one - delivering classic Disney tunes with a definitive Beach Boys sound. Each track is unique and highly enjoyable. "Kiss the Girl" has an especially good Beach Boys flavor to it. Highly recommended!

Where do you even begin..... Musical Genius Brian Wilson has hit all the right notes once again with a fantastic covers album of Classic Disney Music. It doesn't get much better then this.
Throughout the album he covers songs featured in movies like: Toy Story, Jungle Book, Pocahontas, The Lion King, Dumbo, Mary Poppins, Pinocchio & even Cinderella. The list of songs he could've done can be endless with Disney's 80 year catalogue, but I find Brian chose a good batch of songs. Being an old school Disney fan, I would've enjoyed MORE songs and more of the older stuff, but listening to the previews and listening to the album at work before release, I grew to really appreciate the album for what it was. 10 stars I'd give it. Anything Brian touches turns to the sound of Gold. This should be a highlight album of the year for any music collectors.
Now for us audiophiles, this album NEEDS to be pressed in a LTD Edition Vinyl just like the Gershwin Album was. I ended up buying that one on CD and 3x on Vinyl. Thats a fantastic album. Brian just knows how to get the musical point thru to any generation.
This album is WORTH picking up. Do yourselves a favour and DO IT!!!!!

Beautiful cd that Brian has recorded for his children. I am going to buy a lot of copies of this for my kids and grand kids. I'm a school teacher and I'm alway looking for great music to play for my class. Love Colors of The Wind, Baby Mine, well just all of them. Good for Brian for finally doing what he wants. He's proven all he needs to prove, now he's having fun and making us SMiLE.

gorgeous
"When You Wish" is ab-soul-utely lovely, and "Kiss The Girl" not far behind. This album's only fault is it's LP- length playing time. Read more

Typical Brian Wilson
This is a pretty typical brian wilson treatment of re-doing songs. This does however pale in his treatment of the Gershwin album. Read more

Brian spits out another wad of sticky, immaculately produced pop goo - this time aligning himself with fellow California visionary, Walt Disney. Read more
