It's kind of extraordinary how little exposure Richard Berry's version gets! In fact - only now do I realize how much the Beach Boy's version goes to source...

oh yeah, it was Bryce! it was actually an entertaining read, if anticlimactic when the FBI just gives up at the end. its like "found literature" or something.

You start w/ this appropriation & transliteration of a Cuban riffing - turn it into an Amurican fantasy - then a complete sort of drunken misarticulation - of longing & exoticism & frustration...& it becomes this strange trope of universal appeal...
Then this set has been like some parallel to 20thCentury Abstraction in progressive degrees...
