Rolling Stone
The result is Porgy and Bess-meets-Pet Sounds: lovely, weird, subtly psychedelic symphonic lounge music. By the time the album ends with a gorgeous, string-laden rendition of the main theme from “Rhapsody in Blue,” you can’t help but ask: Is Brian Wilson the baby-boomer George Gershwin? Or was Gershwin the first Beach Boy? […]

Slant Magazine
The entirety of Brian Wilson Reimagines Gershwin reeks of a newfound arrogance that lifts this Beach Boys aficionado’s spirits. If there’s one thing Wilson has lacked all along, it’s the bull-headedness to trail his uniquely complex muse down the most mettle-testing of passages. […]

BBC
A winning collection of songs and arrangements done with great style. Later this ensemble has a whale of a time imitating The Beach Boys in They Can’t Take That Away From Me and in the gently swinging Love Is Here to Stay, replete with doo-wah harmonies. […]
