Recorded in 1983 at the same sessions that produced the "Black and White" EP ... originally, an EP-like 'sampler' designed to break the band into New York and Los Angeles radio air space, it has now become a nostalgic, time-capsule [analogue] recording meticulously engineered and mixed by the late, great Emitt Rhodes at his home studio in Hawthorne, California (just around the corner from the 7-Eleven that The Beach Boys often drove past—waving vigorously). This rocking short version of the song did not make it onto the EP and (instead, its horrific, of-the-moment "Disco" counterpart did!), in a very lonely state, just sat on a dime-store cassette tape for decades—until The Lads discovered it (completely by accident) in 2022 and subsequently re-mixed (as best they could) all of the songs from those sessions in an effort to release the "Anniversary" Deluxe Edition (even though it still sounds like a cassette tape!) Go figure ... they didn't!
