On November 7, 2025, Oglio Records will release the 25th Anniversary Edition of Brian Wilson: Live at the Roxy Theatre, the first official Brian Wilson release since his passing on June 11, 2025. Captured over two sold-out nights in April 2000 at West Hollywood’s Roxy Theatre, the historic set documents Wilson’s late-career return to the stage, now expanded and available on vinyl for the first time as a 3LP box set, alongside a 2CD set and digital edition.
Originally issued in 2000 as Wilson’s first-ever live solo album, Live at the Roxy Theatre places the co-founder of the Beach Boys in an intimate room with a 10-piece band, including members of The Wondermints. They perform classics like “California Girls,” “Surfer Girl,” “I Get Around,” and “Good Vibrations”, as well as later Wilson originals like “The First Time,” and “This Isn’t Love”.
The 25th Anniversary Edition also includes newly unearthed performances and on-tour recordings (2000–2009) produced by longtime Wilson engineer Mark Linett (who also recorded/mixed the original album) and Oglio founder Carl Caprioglio.
New liner notes by David Leaf contextualize the performance at the Roxy as the beginning of Wilson’s second act, one that led to Pet Sounds Live, SMiLE, That Lucky Old Sun, and more.
Carl Caprioglio of Oglio Records comments:
With Brian’s passing this year, this edition isn’t just a reissue—it’s a heartfelt tribute to his artistry, his kindness, and the timeless music he shared with us.
