What a musician. As well as his own big hits, he played on others' records in The Wrecking Crew, he was a Beach Boy for a while and, throughout his long life ending with dementia and a major struggle with remembering lyrics, his guitar playing never faltered.
His party piece was The William Tell overture , or The Lone Ranger theme. There are dozens of videos of it around. Here's one of them.
