This song melodically depicts the best state - California. Therefore, it's 5.

Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!)
This album is full of some of my favorite pre-66 BB songs (Let Him Run Wild being a major favorite). Released less than four months after Today!, I'd say 1965 was a great year to be a Beach Boys fan even if the Beatles had already conquered the world. Strange how it wasn't released in Britain until after Pet Sounds came out.

What a year! There's this book I've been recommended: 1965: The Most Revolutionary Year In Music by Andrew Grant Jackson, which looks worth investigating. As for SD being released after PS in Britain (this eluded me at the time or it's a memory thing), that would partly explain Capitol's decision to release "Then I Kissed Her" between "GV" and "H&V" in the UK. Something about two wrongs not making a right...

Add the new "5" to Summer Days. 1 - with beautiful vocals it may be, it's dull. Even shortie "Mama Says" is better than it.

Graduation Day
FOUR
Great vocal expertise (but not one of my favorite covers. I like the way they did The Things We Did Last Summer better.)

4 Guess I'm just a sentimental fool LOL BTW, for "graduation songs", my favorite is the song, Graduation Day, sung by Stark Whiteman, which has been played on our local stations every May for as long as I remember. That one brings on the waterworks

If only more people would be back in ten minutes. I think it's lovely. Just imagine hearing that at a pop concert in 1964! 5.

Like the other TV title theme (whose name I can't even remember) this is basically fluff. Uh-huh. 4.

Monkey's Uncle
I really like Monkey's Uncle but I don't think it deserves a 5, so I'm giving it a FOUR because it's catchy as heck. I love the "whoa whoa whoa-whoa-woah" part and Annette sounds great despite being a singer I don't particularly care for. Great fun! I'll take this song over the dreadful "Karen" anyday.

(Baby) Hully Gully

The best part of the song is the band chorus, in my opinion. Not bad. Nice fun.

I must confess to being fairly apathetic towards Party!. But I shall do my best. Apparently this is Mike on lead. I'm impressed! I love all this late fifties, early sixties vocal group stuff and they do the song proud. They are by no means the only act to cover The Olympics' 1959 song but it sounds good to me. 5.
