Trombone Dixie
"Trombone Dixie" is an instrumental by the American rock band the Beach Boys that was composed by Brian Wilson, although nobody from the group played on the recording. Wilson produced the instrumental in November 1965, early in the sessions for the band's album "Pet Sounds" (1966). It was left off the album and was not released until 1990 as a bonus track for the CD reissue of "Pet Sounds". Excerpts from the instrumental's recording session were then included for "The Pet Sounds Sessions" (1997). According to Brian, "I was just foolin' around one day, fuckin' around  with the musicians, and I took that arrangement out of my briefcase and we did it in 20 minutes. It was nothing, there was really nothing in it." The piece reprises a riff from Wilson's "The Little Girl I Once Knew" (1965), and a portion of the intro would later be recycled for his "Had to Phone Ya" (1976). Personnel.
