June 21 is the first day of
summer, and nothing says summer like Mungo Jerry belting out “In the Summertime” with those
“shhh shh shhhh” and “ahhhh” sounds. So Mungo Jerry tops my Think Summer list at right. If you’re looking to make a summertime road tape, or
just want a loop to listen to while grilling steaks on the patio, give a listen to these songs.
Catch some rays,
