Mike, tell the boy, thanks.
I had forgotten the who did summertime blues. I would have loved to hear Billie Holiday sing it.
Don't forget "Summer Breeze" by Seals and Crofts and "Sunny Days" by Lighthouse.
I don't remember Lighthouse (and they're not on YouTube), but here's "Summer Breeze".
Lighthouse was a Canadian band. They also had a hit with "One Fine Morning" and apparently, both it and "Sunny Days" were on the U.S. top 40 charts at the time. Fun tunes - nothing deep.
