Written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love. Produced by the Beach Boys.
From the Beach Boys 1974 album, “Good Vibrations – The Best Of”
It’s now part of Beach Boys folklore as to how Mike Love went surfing with an old friend, Bill Jackson, and went to Brian Wilson with an idea for a song with a nostalgic theme recalling the Beach Boys’ surf, sun and hot rod hits of a few years prior.
“Do It Again” reached #20 in the US but went to #1 in the UK. It was included as a track on the 1969 album, “20/20”, which went to #68 on the US album chart but all the way to #3 in the UK. The song was later included on a 1974 compilation album, “Good Vibrations – The Best Of” (released on the Brother label), which reached #25 on the US album chart
