"Your Imagination" by Brian Wilson

The troubled songwriting genius Brian Wilson has made an indelible mark on music history as co-founder of the Beach Boys with his brothers. Wilson has struggled with substance abuse and mental illness, which has marred his career as a solo artist.

After years of being a recluse, Wilson emerged to record and perform again, sometimes with the Beach Boys. In 1998, a comeback album of sorts was released along with its title track, "Your Imagination." The song nearly put this master of songwriting and harmony back on the Top 100, but it bubbled under.

As one might expect, this kind of talent was passed down through the generations. Brian is the father of Carnie and Wendy Wilson, who were two thirds of the trio comprising Wilson Phillips.
