Aloha,

Summer, summertime is here...

Just gonna go drive 'round town with all the windows down; but first, wanted some input from my fellow audio nerds:

What are the songs of summer?

For moi, there are three seminal songs:

1) Summer, by War. This would rank one through three, really. It's that iconic.

Ain't no summer song finer.

2) Two words: Mungo Jerry!

3) For some odd (most likely drug related) reason: Plastic Bertrand's "Ca Plan Pour Moi."

(This is best played on vinyl, please.)

OK, now, picture all the Who's in Whoville, gathered around a palm tree, wearing aloha shirts, holding hands and singing...

Fah who for-aze!
Dah who dor-aze!
Welcome Summer,
Summer daze!
