P-Dig mentioned the 80s's, and the bands of the ska revival were a big part of every summer '79-83 for me and my friends.

Just sitting here at work with all the windows and bay doors open .. Bright sun, slight breeze and 82 degrees ..

 

Not quite the first thing I think of when I think "summer", but regardless, this is sounding pretty good right now

 

[Mystic Slipperman]

Can't not have Van Halen. Period.

 

Somehow Diver Down seems to work best at this.

 

In particular, yes. Great call.

 

I know it's not everyone's favorite Van Halen record, but this is a BIG reason why it's one of mine. It ABSOULTELY feels like summer.

 

 

Another SUMMER record from start to finish:

 

Joe Walsh - But Seriously, Folks.

Sunny late summer afternoon on the way to or from beach, windows open. The whole Avalon album works too. Ditto Eno's "Tiger Mountain" and Can's "Future Days" and and and

Madness! We used to love to listen to them! One Step Beyonnnndd . . . . .

[metallithrax]

Madness, Specials, Maiden, love listening to them all - not that I think of them as summer music. On a side note, just had 2 bottles of Madness Lager, called Gladness. Not a bad drink, tastes stronger than it actually is(4.2%).

 

As for summer music though:

 

Smash Mouth - All Star

 

Len - Steal My Sunshine

 

Rupert Holmes - Escape

 

The Style Council - Long Hot Summer

 

Big Breasted Girls Go To The Beach And Take Their Tops Off (Return of the Killer Tomatoes Soundtrack)

 

Dodgy - Good Enough

I actually got Smash Mouths Astro Lounge album a few days before high school graduation. Not a band I would listen to today but I love listening for the Nostalgia of summer 99.

 

Speaking of Summer 99, For The Movies and Lit Up by Buckcherry come to mind. Listened to that album a lot at the time as well. Ditto Enema of the State by Blink and Place In The Sun by Lit. My last punk pop hurrah until I got into classic 80s Alternative goth and new wave in college.

Billy Talent rules!!!!!

[geezer]

ABBA (if only their Scandinavian powers could lower summer temperatures here around...)

Time for summer of 2018 music

 

Love the guitar and a drums on this live version of 606-0842. I saw the B-52's two summers ago and had a blast. I danced this mess around, for sure.

 

 

The Cat 3 ?

SiriusXM has a new all Beach Boys channel! I had it on for about 2 hours today while gardening. It was lots of experimental and rarely heard stuff (today anyway) so fun and interesting to hear.

Summer, it turns me upside down...

When I think summertime songs I think of this first

Happy Summer Solstice 2018

 

 

Just listened to Fred and Kate interviewed today oddly enough on John Fugelsang’s Tell Me Everything talk show on Sirius XM Insight. Good Stuff takes me back to 92 Summer when it got constant MTV rotation for a month.
