GLEN CAMPBELL - "GUESS I'M DUMB" (1965)


If you’ve not heard this before, you’re in for a treat. Brian Wilson wrote it with Russ Titelman for the Beach Boys’ Today LP but then gave it to Campbell as thanks for helping out the band’s live shows in his absence. A master class in how to craft a perfect grown-up pop record.

  3. Truly fabulous record, and amazingly not a hit, which in a way makes it all the better. Brian Wilson - arguably the only true pop genius.
