    Take A Load Off Your Feet

    Written by: Al Jardine/Brian Wilson/Gary Winfrey
    Produced by: The Beach Boys
    Recording date: 1970/71
    Take Number:
    Master Number:
    Time: 2:25
    Lead Vocal by: Al and Brian (on the first verse), then Al for the remainder
    Originally appeared on: Surf's Up
    Subsequently appeared on: none

    Notes:
      Health was an obsession for Brian (especially during the SMILE period; i.e "I'm In Great Shape", "Vegatables", his diatribe about L.A. smog) and this collaboration with Al is a humourous ode to foot care a la "H.E.L.P. Is On The Way", the unrelased ADULT CHILD song, "Life Is For The Living", and the B-side to the "Love and Mercy" single, "He Couldn't Get His Poor Old Body To Move".
