Hi.
-
Today SUMMER 2008 officially has started!
-
No better way to celebrate that with
a first all-10-Summertime versions post.
(actually 11, 'cause I threw in an ultra short
version by Roland Kirk as a bonus:-)
-
I already mentioned (way back) that I really love
the song and collect as many versions as possible.
Sometimes they're rather dull & sometimes they're just brilliant.
Today I have 11 very different versions,
all on the more brilliant side:
a brassy work out,
a nice soulful contribution from Vincent The Soul Chef,
a GREAT fluted version,
a guitar version,
a baritone-sax version,
a version done over Whipping Post,
(hearing = believing!)
a kinda "Rufusized" version,
a reggae version,
2 loungy versions
and ofcourse that Kirk, doing it so small & heartfelt...
-
Enjoy these first sounds of all Summertime to come.

I've been looking forward to this one for a while. Let's see what you've got on tap.
I'm definitely going to tackle the cover versions you sent when I go on vacation next week. I really hope you'll like what I have in store.
Peace and blessings.
E-mile, thank you so much for this. I love listening to various covers of this song! Such a great piece of song writing. I sure hope you do a part 2.
E-mile, thank you for compiling & sharing this all. Now I just need the time to listen to them all!
