Can somebody enlighten me about this track.  I mean, Brian records it for 15BO, but there's tapes of him(?) singing it back in what appears to be late 60s, early 70s.  The backing track created and everything...anyway, what's the deal?

Just one of those things that Brian kept revisiting.  There's all kinds of Back Homes from the Sunflower era as well.  He just kept at it until he was able to get a version he felt comfortable releasing, I guess.

Do you think he released it because he felt comfortable, or because it was something he had in his back pocket that could be thrown on an album as a Brian Wilson song?

Well here is the story. There are 3 versions one with Brian on lead from 62-3. I like it quite a bit kinda of a typical car song sound without car lyrics. The 69-70 is my favorite (makes sense as that is my favorite era). Al sings lead with Brian doing the falsetto. The last is a 1975 version with Brian on lead. It is the first recording to have arual evidence of damage to his voice. I still think its fun, but just not quite as good as before. All 3 have different lyrics.

The 1963 version has a verse but no chorus.
The 1969/70 version has a different verse melody and a chorus at the end.
The 1976 version has the 1963 verse melody and the 1970 chorus.
I really like all three versions

Well, Rerun, I wouldn't be surprised if it were the latter. Supposedly one of the things he had to do under Landy's control during his first round in 1976 was to write a new song every day, even if it were something simple. (That's probably where a lot of the Love You songs came from, especially "Johnny Carson" and "Solar System".) Supposedly one thing he'd do was pull out an old song and try to pass it off as a new song just to slack off on his Landy homework. I wouldn't be surprised if "Back Home" were such an example.

I know the Badman books says different but I think the Back Home 1975 session came right before Landy was hired.

It was actually recorded during  a Dennis session.

I know Carl was there too because Earle Mankey mentioned this in a 1977 interview.

Wasn't that "That same song" ?

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Same Song seems a little more arranged to me. I think it was cut during the sessions proper.
