 Can’t Stop The Bleeding » Dr. Eugene Landy, 1934-2006
Posted in Rock Und Roll at 9:34 pm by GC Psychologist Dr. Eugene Landy, best known for his tenure as Brian Wilson’s round-the-clock therapist (and slightly less celebrated for his role as George Benson’s onetime manager), passed away last week in Hawaii.
But by the late 1980s, after Landy eased into the role of his patient’s co-writer, co-producer and financial manager, the psychologist became the target of lawsuits and a government investigation.
What Landy found, tucked into the shadows of Wilson’s mansion, was an overweight, unwashed 33-year-old musician (above) whose once-flawless ear for creating dazzlingly innovative pop music had been dulled by years of depression, drugs and alcohol.

In 1976, his family commissioned the assistance of controversial psychologist Eugene Landy, who asserted absolute 24-hour control over Wilson's life, and doped him up on illegal psychotropics and tranquilizers.
Landy was quickly fired by Wilson's family, but after Wilson overdosed in 1983, Landy was again appointed as Wilson's psychologist.
Finally freed from Landy in 1992, Wilson has undergone a great deal of psychological progress in the last decade, though his artistic output—1998's Imagination and 2004's Gettin' in Over My Head—has seemed superfluous at best.
