Best tracks without BW

Best tracks that Brian didn't write/co-write, sing on, or produce:
"I Can Hear Music"
"All This Is That"
Others?
Did BW sing on "I Was Made To Love Her"? "Bluebirds Over the Mountain"?

I know Brian might be ON some of these in some capacity. But I guess I wouldn't really count that as him being heavily involved. I think we all know what's a heavily Brian song and what is not: and these are all fantastic songs that feature very little or no Brian involvement.
I love this post because 15 or so years ago the answer would be a resounding THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A GOOD BRIAN-LESS BEACH BOYS TRACK!

I would have added "FF" and/or "LPR", but I know he's definitely on one (bvs, and no, I can't recall which one), and might well be on both.

I get the feeling I'm asking a stupid question right now....
... but BW did sing a line or two on that one, didn't he? (the intro I mean: "on my way to sunny californ-i-a, on my way to spend another sunny day"). A minimal contibution, but still...
Not only minimal, but also the wrong song.

What is this "Tones" you speak of - it's not on any of my
entirely legally released

Darn, when I pushed the post-button, I knew I was mixing up things... and I evensucceeded in deleting my own message not-too quick enough...
As I mentioned to some other people earlier today: I really really really need to get some extra sleep the next couple of days... (starting now)

Rule of thumb, think BEFORE you post. And THINK how it may affect someone else's feelings.
Check out the
Beach Boys Starline
website, the place for pictures of many countries Beach Boys releases on 45.
Listening to you I get the music; Gazing at you I get the heat; Following you I climb the mountain; I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you I see the millions; On you I see the glory; From you I get opinions; From you I get the story

Brian was on basically all of the Surf's Up LP to some capacity. Desper's book really clears that up.
He is on both. He does the Down Down Down vocal on LPR and the White Puffs high part on Feel Flows.
Don't Go Near The Water he worked heavily on the ending
Steamboat and Cuddle Up are open to debate but I hear him.
I Was Made To Love Her he produced and sang the high part.
To answer the question though.....
I Can Hear Music
Be With Me
All I Want To Do
Looking At Tomorrow
SDT (I like it so sue me)
Trader
Here She Comes
Hard Times (even if it is solo Blondie and Ricky it's from the Beach Boys era)
All This Is That
We Got Love
Only With You
River Song
Angel Come Home
Baby Blue
Love Surrounds Me
