Album and Alternate Releases
"Love And Mercy" was first released on an album in 1988 on Brian Wilson's self-titled debut album with production by Brian and Russ Titelman. On later CD re-issues of Brian's debut album, the song has been released as a bonus track without the lead vocal. A re-make of the song was recorded for the 1995 soundtrack to the documentary I Just Wasn't Made for These Times, which was produced by Brian Wilson and Don Was. The remake of the song features a much more sparse production and a more relaxed lead vocal from Brian. Brian Wilson again re-recorded the song on September 24, 2005 with his new backing band and issued the song as a single with a new composition, "Walking Down The Path of Life".
