NEW YORK — The Beach Boys’ Mike Love was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame last Thursday night, just one day after it was announced that his inimitable bandmate Brian Wilson had died.

Love then took to the stage, joining current Beach Boys guitarists Christian Love, John Wedemeyer, Brian Eichenberger and John Stamos. The band faithfully recreated the classic guitar and bass riffs that anchor “California Girls,” “I Get Around” and “Good Vibrations.”

Love, a founder member of The Beach Boys, was inducted alongside music legends George Clinton, Michael McDonald and The Doobie Brothers.
