Bruce Springsteen has published a heartfelt tribute to Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys, who passed away two days ago at the age of 82.
“Brian Wilson was the most creative voice of all pop music, with an extraordinary ear for harmony,” Springsteen wrote on Instagram. «It was also the visionary leader of the largest American band, the beach boys.

Wilson and Springsteen (who made the covers of the Beach Boys Live on a couple of rare occasions) performed together about ten years ago when the boss showed up as a surprise guest during a Wilson concert in 2015 in New Jersey. The two played together a couple of songs from the beach boys.
The memory of Springsteen echoes to the taxes that came in these days to the news of Wilson's disappearance and who involved some of the greatest living musicians like Paul McCartney (“I loved him and it was a privilege to have been around that light so shiny for a while”), Elton John (“my greatest inspiration as Songwriter”) and Bob Dylan who said he has “thought of all years in all years. which I listened to him and admired his genius ».
