Notes
  • The unspectacular County Fair is transformed into this brilliant Spectorian production by Brian. Given to the Castells (with the same backing track), the Beach Boys version was unreleased until the issuing of the two-fer series.
  • Andrew Gladwin would like this to be played at his wedding!
