Looks like were in for a few days of really fine weather...so....youve just had a nice lazy lunch and now your chilling in the garden with your long cool beverage of choice...and 3 hot weather soul sounds (only 3 mind)...and nothing too frantic, just enough to get your foot tapping whilst on the sun lounger/deck chair (it is hot remember)...what would you choose, I'll start with these

"California Montage" Young Holt

"Tell It Like It Is" The Marriots

"Leaving Me" The Independants

BTW...sorry Webby, I just know you were about to post this thread

Searching-(climate) Change

Excellent , gonna be another scorcher tomorrow.

Don't worry, I'm back A little drunk, but here nonetheless... I can't text KevNewry for a pun at this time of night else his wife's going to think we're having an affair, but I'm sure he'll have some corkers tomorrow. I can't think of any Dana Valery permutations - bless her, she usually provides us with a rich seam of nonsense.

Frank Wilson - Phew I Love You

Diana Ross & The Supremes - Steamy

Julian Covey - A Little Bit Burnt

Judy Street - WHot

Johnny Bragg - They're Scorching About Me

Barbara Mills - Queen of Pools

Metros - Since I Found My Bathers

Millie Jackson - My Tan Is A Deep Tan

Mary Love - You Turned My Bitter Into Sweat

Eddie Bishop - Scald Me

I'll get me bikini & see myself out....

Three summer faves of mine:

Ricardo King - On a hot summer day in the big city

John Andrews - It's just love

and for the latin lovers:

King nando - Orchard beach shingaling part 2

Two fantastic 70s warm weather soul sounds:

War - Summer (UA)

Attitudes - Sweet Summer Music (Dark Horse)

...and a shameless plug here - those who like a bit of windows-down, volume-up vontage non-soul should check out my "Chartbusters USA - Sunshine Pop Edition" compilation, just out on Ace. Featured artists include the Turtles. the Lovin' Spoonful, the 5th Dimension, Keith, Spanky and Our Gang, the Mamas and the Papas (and Mama Cass on her own), the Young Rascals, Robert John and loads more.

It's a bit fab if I do say so myself...

How About,

Ramp-Everbody Loves The Sunshine-ABC

Pieces Of A Dream-Warm Weather-Elektra

God's Gift To Women-Groovin'-Listening Post

Leon Ware-That's Why I Came to California-Elektra

Pat Johnson-East Of The Sun, West Of The Moon-Win Or Lose

Sorry you said 3, can't count! Must be listened to with a handful of Gordons and Schweppes!

Cheers, Ady

Seriously? Sausalito Calling - Camelle Hinds is always a great Summer tune.

Non-seriously? George Pepp - The Peeling Is Real

isley brothers lp 3+3 every summer
