When the time came to reissue Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!) on CD in the early 1980s, Capitol Records decided to cut out the songs "Amusement Park U.S.A." and "I'm Bugged at My Old Man" while renaming the LP California Girls after its lead track.The truncation of The Beach Boys' hefty endowment to pop music is fodder for a thousand stories but this one stings a little than some of the others.
