We’re huge Beach Boys fans around here as you well know, which is why it’s sort of strange that we haven’t had “I Get Around” on the Daily Tune Up until now. I love this song and if you listen to it the story of cruising and street racing like the old days is front and center. Written by the dynamic duo of Brian Wilson and Mike Love, this is yet another Beach Boys song that harkins back to cars, girls, and the beach. We can’t argue with any one of those three. One interesting note on this particular song is that it was the Beach Boys first Number 1 hit on the Billboard Charts, and it reached the Number 1 spot on July 4th.

It was better when I saw them in concert in the early ’80s.
I still love the BB
They put on a great show in concert.
I saw them back ’82-83 at Great Adventure in NJ just before Dennis Wilson died.
