Two years before Brian Wilson's death at age 82, the Beach Boys co-founder shared a story about meeting Bob Dylan in an unlikely place: the hospital.

Bob Dylan, 84, Makes Beautifully Heartfelt Tribute to Brian Wilson originally appeared on Parade. Yesterday, the world mourned the loss of one of the single greatest songwriters we had the privilege to experience, and that was Brian Wilson, of The Beach Boys. His career, spanning 60 years, has completely changed music.

“Brian Wilson was always so kind to me from the day I met him,” John said. “He sang ‘Someone Saved My Life Tonight’ at a tribute concert in 2003, and it was an extraordinary moment for me. I played on his solo records, he sang on my album, The Union, and even performed for my AIDS Foundation.
