Besides Love and Foskett, any idea if there are any other Boys on the Barbara Ann track? Don't hear Carl or Al, just curious.

Talentwise, the highlight is probably the Beach Boys making an appearance to recast two of their hits as Cubbie anthems. “Barbara Ann” becomes “Here come the Cubs,” and “Surfin’ Safari” becomes “Cubby Safari.” The harmonies are great as ever—they make you want to grab your bat and ball and go surfing—but this was not a high point in the band’s career. As far as I can tell, the songs originally aired as broadcast filler during ballgames on WGN Radio. In 1987, the station sold the collection as a mail-order promotion for $6.99. My aunt Kathy bought a tape and made me a copy. https://theotherjournal.com/2016/06/09/singing-with-losers/ I agree that it doesn't sound like all the Beach Boys were on there.

I'd rather listen to Summer of Love on an endless loop.
