[Dixielandjazz] Name and where to find a tune

[Hal Vickery]

Oddly enough the Beach Boys version of Barbara Ann was what is now called a cover (although back in the old days a cover was actually a contemporaneous recording by one artist of another artist's hit).  The original version of Barbara Ann, at least this song titled Barbara Ann, was recorded by the Regents in 1961.  The Beach Boys version was much better.
