No one mentioned the old jazz/ blues song "Summer Time" ?

You know. Summer time, when the livin is easy .............. You can do really cool stuff with that one.

Note to self .. OOPS age is showing.

Summer Time is a great song for singers also! Love the bluesy style in it.

Everyone (including me) has done a version of Gershwin's "Summertime". After Janis Joplin's version I like Big Country's version the best.

Summertime by Janis
Slowride
Do You Feel Like We Do
Diamond Girl
Afternoon Delight

Also "Summer Breeze" by Seals & Croft. And "I Don't Need No Doctor" by the Pie.

Im Walkin On Sunshine comes to mind.

Not really my kind of song, but when I hear it it does make me feel good.

Lenny Kravitz, Fly Away has that same feel for me.

Did anyone mention Summertime Blues, the Whos version is great but I always liked Blue Cheer better for some reason

Satch had that instrumental, wheres Santos when I need him. Wasnt it called Summer Song

Yeah, it is called "Summer Song".


I guess for me it would be "How we spent our summer vacation" by Forced Entry. I don't expect any of you to know who that is even though they were huge in the late 80's/early 90's.

YO WASSAP BROTHER JW WOOHOOO haha.

YES it was "Summer Song" by Joe Satriani.

I remember the music video on MTV where Satch was playing his guitar in the middle of a Crash Derby. Very cool.

When I hear the song "Summer Nights" from Van Halen, I always feel like going to a 7-11 Parking lot and drinking a slurpy, Skateboarding a bit with the crew. Even when it's a cold winter's day in Chicago.

I like this one!
