This Beach Boy classic was recorded on Gatton's 88 Elmira Street album but was also a favorite of his live. This clip is one of the few existing of him performing it from March 1993
My first date with my wife was at a Danny Gatton Show. Our first dance was to this song. She was a goddess and it was the single most exquisite moment of my life. On that night I happened to bring at tele with me. Danny sat at our table on his break. He autographed my guitar. My wife beat me to the great gig in the sky. I’ll never forget that moment listening to the finest guitarist in the world while falling in love with my wife.

The 2 most naturally gifted guitarists I have ever heard are Django and Danny both had the uncanny gift of playing any musical idea that came into their head flawlessly no matter how fast or complicated .guitar playing came easy for them

For the people that think Danny plays too fast and too many millions of chords a minute Danny had a huge repertoire of musical knowledge listen to his playing on New York stories and you will see Danny could play slow incredibly difficult jazz straight ahead jazz at that close to Wes & Joe’s ability Danny was a monster guitar player pure and simple he was my favorite back in the early 90’s and still is today his playing is unparalleled nobody comes close to this guy except Scotty Anderson who might be Danny’s equal and highly underrated to boot I wish Scotty would travel but he guess he stays mainly in the Cincinnati Ohio area and Scotty blows away anybody today even joe bonamassa who is very good but Scotty is light years ahead of joe sorry but true

@Clayton Gillaspy; good to see Alvin Lee getting a mention. Too often overlooked and one of Britain's finest. The live 'Undead' album has always been a favourite.

Clayton Gillaspy , actually, I am a firm believer in what Muddy Waters said, which is that you can't be the best, you can only be a good un. That being said, Danny Gatton was most definitely a good one.!

Was really lucky to see him play regularly in DC area The happiness he had when playing and recreating past artist Charlie Christian comes to mind He and Andy Kaslow would dissect and create whole new themes on intricate licks It was great

Danny really inspires my playing as always. Simply the best, but here his band reminds me of how a band can sound when it isnt infested with shitty players. Man what a sound. There is sugar free, gluten free, how about HACK free does that exist??

the funny thing is, I actually hate The Beach Boys, I mean I really and truly detest The Beach Boys, and yet I love what Danny did with the melody of this tune. The studio version on the 88 Elmira Street record is just sublimely magical.
