"The Warmth Of The Sun" B-side

This was the B-side to "Dance, Dance, Dance" which was featured yesterday in this space. Brian Wilson and Mike Love wrote it on November 22, 1963 - they started that morning before JFK was shot, and finished up later in the day, which accounts for its mellow tone. From a musical standpoint, this song has a unique structure with some very unexpected chord changes. As always, the harmonies are impeccable.
