  • Brother Records, Inc. (BRI) is a record label and holding company formed in October 1966 that holds the intellectual property rights of the Beach Boys, including the "The Beach Boys" trademark. In mid-1966, Beach Boys business manager Nick Grillo worked to form the Brother Records corporation, bringing in Van Dyke Parks's manager and Brian Wilson's friend David Anderle to run the organization from an office on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, California. Motivated in no small part by the negative reaction of Capitol Records to some of Brian's ideas for Smile, the new company would give the band more control over their products. The shareholders were the 1966 members of the Beach Boys: Wilson brothers Brian, Carl, and Dennis, along with their first cousin [[Mike Love], their friend Al Jardine and Bruce Johnston, who traded his share in 1971.. In 1983, shortly after the death of Dennis Wilson, his estate sold his share back to the corporation to repay loans. In 1998, following Carl Wilson's death, his share of the corporation passed to and is still controlled by his estate. The label's first releases were the Beach Boys' "Heroes and Villains" single and Smiley Smile album in 1967, distributed by Capitol Records. Numerous other Beach Boys albums were first released on the joint Brother/Reprise Records label during the 1970s, including Sunflower, Holland, and 15 Big Ones. Some records were also distributed by Star-day King Records or Caribou Records. As of 2007, the most recent CD re-release series of the Beach Boys' 1970s albums is on the joint Brother/Capitol Records label. The logo for Brothers Records is from Cyrus E. Dallin's life size bronze statue, Appeal to the Great Spirit. The Appeal to the Great Spirit statue is located at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.
  • Brother Records ist ein amerikanisches Plattenlabel. Es wurde 1966 von der US-Band „The Beach Boys“ gegründet. Den ersten Vorsitz dieses Plattenlabels übernahm 1966 David Anderle. Die Plattenfirma wurde von den Beach Boys gegründet, da sie die vollständige Kontrolle im künstlerischen Bereich erhalten und lediglich den Vertrieb über Capitol Records durchführen lassen wollten. Auch wollten die einzelnen Mitglieder neue Bands unter Vertrag nehmen und diese produzieren. BRI war allerdings mehr als eine einfache Plattenfirma. Sie regelt alle Aktivitäten die mit den Beach Boys zusammenhängen, von den Namensrechten bis zu den Veröffentlichungen. Zudem wurde sie auch Nachfolger der Sea of Tunes, den von Murry Wilson und Brian Wilson gegründeten Musikverlag der die Musikrechte der Beach Boys verwaltete. Sie unterhielten zunächst ein Aufnahmestudio in Brian Wilsons Haus, ab 1970 erbauten sie die Brother Studios in Santa Monica. Während der Aufnahmen zum Album Holland im Jahr 1972 bauten sie in den Niederlanden eine Scheune zu einem Studio um.
