Many of you may be aware that I'm performing a little Beach Boys tribute gig soon, and, as much as I tried, It doesn't look like I'm going to be able to fill out the racks of BG singers.  So it might just be me and 1-2 other available to sing for the whole thing, so I have to shape the set accordingly.

But also as a potentially interesting list, what Beach Boys songs have very little in the way of Vocal Harmony?

Don't Talk obviously has none at all--what else?

"Sufer Moon" and "And Then I Kissed Her" doesn't have much going on in the background either (a little bit)

Good calls--when I don't feel like thinking, I outsource it to the board.  Thanks.

Yes, yes--I should have stipulated, excluding spoken-word and instrumentals.

The Lonely Sea, the only thing about that is I'm not positive if it is Carl/Mike in the background vocals or if Brian is there with them, so that'd give 4 voices with Brian's lead.

Sail On Sailor other than on the title, but in a setting where you're doing like an unplugged gig, I don't think having the entire song as a solo voice would be a problem.

I Wanna Pick You Up (except the very end). Would be great to do solo. The meandering, quirky chord progression carries it.
