Problem: Why would he relegate his best work to a B-side?

Possibilities: (A) He really, really doesn't want to be famous, and this one song could have ruined that. (B) He didn't realize how good the song was, or how well it fit into FB&Cs? (C) He was talked-out of promoting the tune by an evil force, trying to prevent his good from being widely-distributed.

My bet is on (C).

Always enjoy Frank's references to the Southern Hemisphere. Don't know why. Has he ever recorded a song with a South Seas accompaniment?
