On this date in 1966, the #2 song on the charts was the Beach Boys recording of "Barbara Ann."
The original 1961 version by the Regents only made it to #13 on the pop chart, but I still prefer their upbeat tempo and wailing sax to the more informal, laid back version by the Beach Boys.
It's still a great song. Hats off to all us Barbara Anns!
