    Notes:
      A fairly tepid reading of the Chuck Berry standard kicks off "15 Big Ones." Hyped as the "Brian is back" album, after three years of no studio albums by the Beach Boys, this song and album both reached top 10, which was a major comeback after the recent chart success of the Beach Boys. However, the album only had 7 original compositions, of which 5 involved Brian, and helped stereotype the Beach Boys as an oldies act.
