There ain't nothing like a song

The song was written by Byers-Johnston; it's not a real rejected song. The song was selected for the movie Spinout but it wasn't used.
Recorded 20 june 1967 for the movie Speedway because there were not enough good songs available(?) for this movie.

Thanks, colonel. Just a couple of precisions :

**"The Wonder Of You" was written by Baker Knight.

**"Sweet Angeline" was written by Chris Arnold, Geoffrey Morrow and David Martin.
