text: # Golden Hits of the Smothers Brothers, Vol. 2
  
  Golden Hits of the Smothers Brothers, Vol. 2 (released July 1966) is the Smothers Brothers' first greatest hits album. There is no Volume 1, but all of the routines had been performed on earlier comedy albums by the duo. These are not the same performances contained on other albums, making it a "new" album. There was not a true hits collection for the duo until Sibling Revelry: The Best of the Smothers Brothers released in 1988.
  
  ## Track listing
  
  * "Cabbage" (10:27) version of "Boil Them Cabbage Down"- Dick asks Tom to "Take it" and Tom says "No." Also includes the idea that there are pumas in crevices in America - previously performed on The Two Sides of the Smothers Brothers
  * "Church Bells" (2:58) - Song about the bells of a Catholic church, a Protestant church, and Synagogue during which Dick mistakenly describes "the little sliver bell" of the Synagogue. Previously performed on Curb Your Tongue, Knave where the mistake is "Catholic Chowers."
