Beach Boys - Why Do Fools Fall In Love

I know, not a Top 40 hit, but it did bubble under as a b-side. I knew only the
version from the "Shut Down Volume 2" LP, which begins with a drum beat and
vocals with no music backing. Listening to 2008 collection "U.S. Singles
Collection; The Capitol Years 1962-1965", the song begins with no drum beat,
rather a keyboard instrument that fades behind the vocals.I thought it might be
the remains of the 2009 issued stereo mix with the (gorgeous) intro, but it's
not. Checking 45s playing on YouTube, this latter version is the 45. News to
me!

That is very interesting info. This b-side was what was played on WQAM in 1964. The station would not play the a-side because their biggest competition on the AM dial was WFUN.

Apparently, somebody at the station felt playing the big chart side of the 45 would only call attention to their enemy. Instead, they played the cover tune on the flip side.
