While in a recording session, Jan & Dean got into a fight and Dean Torrence decided to go down the hall and see what the Beach Boys were up to. They were celebrating completing an album and asked Dean to come on in and join the fun. They started to roll tape and recorded "Barbara Ann." This is truly something if you've never really listened to the song. It works best with headphones. You can hear how drunk they are. Missed lyrics, beer cans popping, requests to empty ashtrays.
