Based on the weather in west of Scotland yesterday it would have have been Storm Warning by Ambassadors/Volcanos (Arctic) I would have preferred Cool Summer Night by Intentions on Uptown

Scorchio here. We could do with a storm to clear the air a bit. :(

Millie Jackson's take on "Summer (The First Time)" from the classic "Caught Up" album. Crap quality tube recording though

A lot of these have been posted already but I was thinking of doing an all summer songs themed radio show a month ago and came up with these:

Dee Clark - warm summer breezes

Jerry and the Champions - it's summer

Chain Reaction - summer is here

Albert Jones - it's going to be a lovely summer

FLYIN' HIGH no # Summer Days & Summer Nights / (Going To) Myrtle Beach

harmonics - summer's love

intentions - cool summer night

lyrics - thoughts of a summer day

billy stewart - summertime

dramatics - hot pants in the summertime

soul teasers - "on a hot summer day in the big city"

stimulators - warm summer nights

royalettes - blue summer

orientals - misty summer night

marlon - it's summer

fifth page - my summer love

persuasions - summer ride

four voices - summer kind of love

temptations - it's summer

caronators - long hot summer

four tops - lonely summer

freedom - summer memory

gigi - this time next summer

little anthony - summer's comin' in

velons - summer love

life ensemble - on a summer's day

malibus - summertime

mandisa - summer love

manhattans - summertime in the city

mother freedom band

wild honey - loving in the summertime

zeal - summer's groove

blue notes - another summer breeze

cashmeres - summer time

gary brown - lonely summer

duponts - stay for the summer

dynamic five - it's summer

You did say "soul" but I'll try and sneak this great jazz vocal in if I may, as always been on my summer playlist for the ipod....Alice Babs - Been to Canaan.

Green fields and rolling hills. Ahhhhh yes.

Last one from me today (honest!)...Cool Million feat Westcoast Soulstars - We can work it out.

Great recently released Summer Soul I think :thumbsup:

just so good

the brilliant "nothing but blue skies"by the equally brilliant Jackie Wilson.

When Robbie Vincent still had his Radio 1 soul show (about 20 yrs back), he asked listeners to send in 3 recommended tracks.

Summer was coming up, so I sent in 3 'hot theme' tracks & he selected em & played em.

Can't remember what they were now, but think one was a 'later' 4 Tops cut ("Hot Summer Nights" rings a bell) & Lamont Dozier's "Cool Me Out" was another of em.

Lonnie Hill "Galveston Bay" always does it for me....and since Jazz/Funk's been touched on Grover Washington Jr "Sausalito" - superb!!

As "Sausalito" has been mentioned .......

thought I'd nominate Camelle Hinds "Sausalito Calling" ... sublime summer soul ...
