Modcast #37: Summer Songs to Blow Away the Big Chill
Listen NowDownload
Welcome to Mr. Suave's Cold Cold World. The big chill came to Seattle this week dropping about five inches of snow and temperatures to a downright inhospitable 18 degrees farhenheit this week. And, to make matters worse my electric furnace decided to implode leaving me with a freezing cold house and a deep desire for summer to come blowing in. But, since summer --at least in our hemisphere here-- is still months away, I'm going to try and heat things up with some summer type songs.
Pizzicato Five -- Sweet Soul Revue
The Parade -- Sunshine Girl
The Love Generation -- Groovy Summertime
Randy Winburn -- Sunshine USA
The Orange Peels -- Long Cold Summer
Swing Out Sister -- When the Laughter is Over
Wondermints -- Shine On Me
Nuyorican Soul -- I am the Black Gold of the Sun
Corduroy -- Breakfast in Love
Love Jones -- Bacchus Girl
Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 -- Look of Love
Bonus Video I: Sergio Mendes joins forces with the Black Eyes Peas to produce and new and hip-hoppier version of the classic Mas Que Nada.
