Smile (also referred to as Brian Wilson Presents Smile) is the fifth studio album by Brian Wilson, released on September 28, 2004. The project was originally conceived in 1966 as Smile, a concept album recorded by The Beach Boys written in collaboration between Wilson and lyricist Van Dyke Parks. It was intended to succeed the group's 11th studio album Pet Sounds and was based on the engineering methods of their single "Good Vibrations". Many years after the project was shelved due to personal and technical difficulties with recording, Wilson chose to revisit the material with Parks as a specially arranged live concert performance. Motivated by the unexpected positive reception, a studio-recorded version was then released by Wilson as a solo album. Recorded from scratch, Brian Wilson Presents Smile eschews the Beach Boys' Smile sessions by containing all-new instrumental and vocal performances. Recordings from the original Beach Boys' sessions were later released as The Smile Sessions in 2011.
