Thanks for taking time to post this message & video (as well as the Monkees videos) It's like sunshine on a cloudy day!
Best of all, this summer my son moves back from D.C. to N.O. YAY!
SUMMER means hiding inside the house with the AC....97 degrees with 100% humidity.....no thanks.....Florida in the winter time is great, but I hate the summers, I do not go to the beach, sitting in a chaise lounge baking in the sun is not my idea of relaxing, besides too much sun is bad for the skin....I guess I'm a "Debbie Downer"
One summer upside for us still working folks is school is out...and the driving is easy.
I have very pale skin with natural light freckles. I did my share of bikini wearing and trying to tan when younger, but now the kind of beach I really like to be on other than something at the Northern CA coast is the Irish Sea.
Here's a big dose of how the summertime feels here in N.O.
With the exception of the late Ms. Janis Joplin (nope, still not a fan --- but gave it a listen anyway just in case) this is a great line up, with my favorite being Ms. Nora Jones!!! Thanks for the post.
Billy Stewart..("Sitting In The Park"...)..
His "Summertime"..PTG..Pretty damn Good IMHO!
Summertime....I am afraid I have to agree with Shelley. Summers in Dallas are literally hell. 98-100 degrees continuously, even at 11pm. June, July & August are my cave months. In A/C the entire time.
Summer is truly an ac time for me too. Great to listen to some good summer music - including Eric's.
Because of your post with the list of versions of "Summertime", I found a Norah Jones CD yesterday, still sealed and unopened at a Goodwill store!! Paid $2.49 for it. Thanks for the reminders.
