The "Andy Paley sessions" is the unofficial name given to an unfinished recording project by American musicians Brian Wilson and Andy Paley. During the 1990s, the duo planned to record an album that would have comprised original material written and produced by themselves with participation from other members of the Beach Boys. It was the last time Brian worked with his bandmates before Carl Wilson's death in 1998.[2]
Wilson and Paley had previously collaborated on Wilson's solo albums Brian Wilson (1988) and Sweet Insanity (unreleased). In February 1992, California courts issued a restraining order on Wilson's former psychologist Eugene Landy. The next day, Wilson phoned Paley explaining that they were now free to produce whatever they wanted. Without an album or recording contract in mind, the two proceeded to write and record several dozen songs that reflected Wilson's artistic sensibilities more than any work since The Beach Boys Love You (1977). In the meantime, he completed two albums for 1995: I Just Wasn't Made for These Times with Don Was and Orange Crate Art with Van Dyke Parks.
Many personal and legal conflicts prevented the album from being completed. Contemporary reports stated that Wilson was influenced by his wife and advisors to abandon the Paley recordings in favor of more commercial adult contemporary projects with River North Records owner Joe Thomas. Since then, several Paley collaborations have seen official release across Wilson's albums, though many more circulate on bootlegs.
