Sweet Insanity is an unreleased album from Brian Wilson that was originally due for release in 1991. Initially, titled simply ‘Brian’, the album was intended to be a follow up to his 1988 solo debut. However during this stage in Wilson’s life, he was under the care of controversial psychologist Dr. Eugene Landy, who is known for his unconventional method of “24 hour therapy”. This meant that Landy was micro-managing Wilson's life, including his creative career.
The recordings from the album's sessions have been generally criticized by fans and critics as being sub–par and they were ultimately rejected by Brian's label at the time; Sire.
Wilson has said in interviews that the master tapes were stolen so there is no chance of there ever being an official release, although the songs have shown up on numerous bootlegs.
Five of the songs were recorded over a decade later and released on Wilson’s 2004 album ‘Gettin' In Over My Head’. WikipediaStavro Arrgolus

Facts: |
Since this is an unreleased album, the actual playlist remains somewhat questionable, though it's most certainly the recording from which the Dr. Demento favorite "Smart Girls" originates, hence its inclusion here. (Stavro Arrgolus) |
