Title: LOTTA Saint Nick....
Post by: 37!ws on January 22, 2006, 06:34:49 AM
Okay, this is going to be kind of a pointless post, but...

It just now occurred to me that we have at least SEVEN legally-released versions of "Little Saint Nick" by either The Beach Boys or a Beach Boy [not counting mono versus stereo or by Beach Boy offspring]:
- 1963 single version
- 1964 album version
- "Drive-In" version
- instrumental track on Stack-O-Tracks
- the Children's Hospital PSA on Ultimate Christmas
- Brian's version on WIRWFC
- and, I believe on the 2000 reissue of Brian Wilson, the "you'll be hearing from me in '88" teaser has a little rendition of LSN in the background.

Weird, huh?

There was also a version Brian recorded with his band in 2004 for his website

I guess there are two album "versions", mono and stereo...?
