"Guess I'm Dumb" is on nine different anthologies, six of which are
currently in print, including that one, LEGACY 1961-2002, THE CAPITOL YEARS
1965-1977, and the various artists comps RARE SURF VOLUME SIX, the UK
release PET PROJECTS: THE BRIAN WILSON PRODUCTIONS and its lesser US
counterpart simply called THE BRIAN WILSON PRODUCTIONS.
Besides the Wondermints, it's been covered by Jules Shear, Brian Gari, Sean
Macreavy, Matt Backer and Louis Phillippe. The Honeys also recorded a
version of it, available on 2000's THE HONEYS COLLECTION. The Sea of Tunes
boot that has "Guess I'm Dumb" is '98's UNSURPASSED MASTERS VOLUME 7: THE
ALTERNATE BEACH BOYS TODAY! ALBUM, but it's just instrumental takes plus
the familiar version with Glen's lead vocal, which leads me to believe that
there is no extant version with a BB singing lead; otherwise, it would be
on this extremely comprehensive set!
