![Glen Campbell - I Guess I'm Dumb - Brian Wilson [STEREO]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dj7gs5zksrl62ildjv4o5ncy/bafkreigsb3upkpdpse5o2aut4hzlmwon2uqnpzfykib35xrjbdtgiaga4e)
The only way Pet Sounds could have been any more perfect to me is if this gem of a song, gifted to Glen Campbell, had replaced Sloop John B. RIP Brian Wilson, a brilliant, visionary musician, producer and songwriter for whom the term 'genius' seems barely adequate...
