[Kann]

I had a question about the song writers for the new girl in school. here it says it is written by Bob norberg but I also hear people say it is written by Bob Norman. Does anyone know which one it is to clarify the subject? Thanks

[Admin]

It's the same person. Norman was an alias for Norberg.

[joshthekook]

Incorrect, the only tracks Jan cowrote were Deadmans curve, 3window coupe, Bgas rickshaw, new girl in school. Thats what the record says.

[BlackSea]

The song writing credits have been updated since. You must be looking at the original vinyl or an early Cd release.
Until next time

[joshthekook]

Yeah the orig LP.

[Surf Route 101]

It's the same person. Norman was an alias for Norberg.

  Norman/Norberg was a buddy of Brian Wilson's. They wrote "Back Home" (15 Big Ones) together.

[NateRuvin]

Norman was put on BBs records because Murry Wilson made them put that, as he was anti-semetic and thought "Norberg" sounded "too Jewish" .
