BEACH BOYS - "all summer long" Tablature

Official BEACH BOYS Tablature & Sheet Music »

Wonderful song - captures the innocence of the 60s so perfectly that the
producers of _American Graffiti_ couldn't resist including it, even though
it wouldn't be released until two years after the story took place. (I
could say something similar about a certain other song and _Animal House_...)
