    A Hard Day's Night The Beatles. People would choose Sgt Pepper's as their favorite Beatles summer album or Revolver, but I went with A Hard Day's Night since that was the first album I ever bought! I also watched the movie and it was hilarious 🤣! Beatlemania was huge in 1964 and they succeeded!

    Brothers and Sisters is a solid album, and southern rock could be great music for the summer. Of course, down here in Central Florida, we play that kind of stuff - like Skynyrd and the Allmans - year round.
    Again, I think I'll be basing my picks on albums I actually added to my collection during the summertime of whatever year it was. And with that...
    My Day 2 Pick:
    Nada Surf - High/Low
    The debut album from this NYC based alternative rock/indie rock/power pop group. In the summer of 1996, their song "Popular" - which is a passive-aggressive attack on bullshit high school politics - was constantly played on radio and MTV.
    I don't remember if it was Father's Day or on my grandpa's birthday, when I bought the album, but I remember that my mom took me to buy the album real quick before we headed to my grandparents' for one of summer gatherings.
    Awesome album, from opener "Deeper Well" to closer "Zen Brain." Other highlights for me include "Sleep," "Stalemate," "Tree House," and "Psychic Caramel."
    Hell, even the cover screams summer, as it has an adolescent kid about to jump his bicycle into a lake.
    My July Picks (So Far):
    Day 1: Motley Crue - Dr. Feelgood
    Day 2: Nada Surf - High/Low

    2. KISS -- "Dressed to Kill"
    The definitive soundtrack to my summer of '75. Some Arapaho and Shoshone Native American friends from school invited some friends and I to the perfect swimming hole in the Popo Agie River on the Wind River Indian Reservation, and we'd play this over and over on a cheap little battery powered cassette player. "Two Timer," "Rock Bottom," "R&R All Nite" and Ace's "Getaway" (sung by Peter). Still my favorite KISS album. We made a lot of Native American friends that summer.

  • @dannyhoeykens
    @dannyhoeykens Před měsícem +10

    My pick for today is Deep Purple - Machine Head. A phenomenal album by the English Hard Rock band. It kicks off with a song that has already resulted in many speeding tickets, I fear, the intense opener ´Highway Star´ that really blasts out of the speakers. The interaction between the musicians is sensational. ´Never Before´ and ´Lazy´ are excellent rockers with fine Jazzy Arrangements. The most well known track is off course ´Smoke On The Water´ with that iconic riff and story behind the song. But the absolute sensation for me is ´Space Truckin´ Such a powerful, exciting trip performed with so much exceptional musicianship. I usually picture a barfight scene while listening to this song. I hate violence in real life but I can enjoy a good barfight in a movie. That song is ideal to kick some ass.

    Pick #2: No Doubt's Tragic Kingdom. Honestly an album where the deep cuts are just as good if not better than some of the singles and there are no tracks I'm tempted to skip. Much like 311, I suppose No Doubt kind of go in the ska genre which may rub some people the wrong way, but I never get tired of these tracks no matter how many times I hear them.

    Thought an obvious choice for summertime music had to be The Doobie Brothers. Their upbeat blend of hard rock, country, folk, blues, soul and sweet harmonies going perfectly with summer. Their best album is probably The Captain and Me, but for my pick today I've gone with their 2nd album Toulouse Street. Any album that includes the wonderfully sunny Listen To The Music and top-down cruising anthem Rockin' Down The Highway picks itself! It's rather cool & breezy here in the UK today; just have to imagine I'm in California instead!

    Day 2. Original Mirrors - Original Mirrors. 😃👍. Debut album released in 1980 on Arista Records. During the summers in the early 1980s, my older brother Christopher and I would scour discount store cut-out bins for rare, unusual and inexpensive vinyl. He would drive us to various discount record haunts from Norwalk to Trumbull. I found this blind buy album as a cut-out at a Woolworth. The album cover screamed at me. It is killer early U.K. New Wave. 🔥. I finally found minty vinyl without a cut cover recently. This album really needs a CD reissue! Quirky synth pop rock is fun for summer listening!

    Great selection Pete. I have this one coming up.
    2) The B-52s - The B-52s
    The B-52s were New Wave pioneers. "Rock Lobster", influenced by the vocalizations of Yoko Ono, is of course, a New Wave classic. But oh, there is so much more to this album. "Planet Claire" combines tacky sci-fi/horror flick music with clever, offbeat lyrics. "Dance This Mess Around" is a brilliant mish-mosh of Shangri-Las melodrama, Sumpremes Pop, '50s and '60s dance fads and wacky teen soap opera. "52 Girls" is a nod to every woman alive. "Lava" and "Hero Worship" are fantastic, and overlooked by some who only know "Rock Lobster". And then there's the hilarious cover of Petula Clark's "Downtown" bringing the album to a close.
    I bought this record when it was originally released in 1979 and it's still as vibrant today as it was back then.
    Favorite Tracks:
    "Planet Claire"
    "Dance This Mess Around"
    "Rock Lobster"
    "52 Girls"

    Day 2 pick is If You Can Believe Your Eyes And Ears by The Mamas And The Papas origionally released on Dunhill records in 1966. John and Michele Phillips. Cass Elliot and Denny Doherty formed in 1965 in NYC. John with Michele wrote California Dreamin in 1963. Barry Mcguirre first recorded it in 1963. It then became The Mamas and The Papas first single in december of 1965. They worked with some top session men at the time. On this lp they had Larry Knechtel keyboards. Joe Osborne bass. Hal Blaine drums. Bud Shank flute solo on California Dreamin and P J Proby guitar. Other songs include Monday Monday. Straight Shooter. Got A Feelin. Go Where You Wanna Go. Somebody Groovy. The In Crowd and more. Their music blended folk rock soul and great harmonies. After a short 2 plus yrs together they split in 1968 briefly reuniting in 1971. They were inducted into the rock hall of fame in 1998.

    My pick today is SANTANA III. I could have picked just about any Santana album, but of all of them, this is the one I tend to go for at any time, but especially in the summer. It features some of the most explosive and dynamic music released under the Santana name. From the opening Batuka, through the groovy sway of Nobody To Depend On, to the likes of Taboo, Guajira and Jungle Strut there's not a wasted note. With the dualling guitars of Carlos himself and the teenage protégé, Neal Schon and Gregg Rolie's warm soulful voice, that blend of Soul, jazz, rock, blues and latin rhythms and groove just oozes summertime for me and is like honeyed candy to my ears.

    I also enjoy “ Kick “ by fellow Aussies , the great band that was fronted by the late great Michael Hutchence that was ….. INXS .
    Another album I can recommend to listen to outside in the summer from beginning to end is …..
    Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John which starts off with the fantastic
    “ Funeral for a friend “which leads straight into “ “ Love lies bleeding “
    The whole double album is full of killer tracks , quite frankly one of the best albums ever made by anyone ,and I don’t say that lightly !

    While Pet Sounds is their best album, Today! and Summer Days, both from 1965 have more summer vibes. But really, you have to go with a compilation to get all their best summer anthems. When you grow up with this being the only Beach Boys record in the house, this is THE album. For many others, that's Endless Summer (1974), but then you won't get "Little Honda."

The live albums always get serious airplay in the Summer in my car / house / jukebox at the pub although they do get played at other times as well and of course my neighbours have to put up with them as well.

    Essential is a strong single-disc collection that features 16 highlights from Robin Trower's long career at Chrysalis, including such staples as "Too Rolling Stoned," plus several key album tracks. While such albums as Bridge of Sighs work as individual albums, this does a nice job of rounding up highlights from uneven records, making it a nice sampler both for casual fans and the curious.

    Great album and could use Bridge of Sighs thus have vinyl so being on cd this Essential album collection you see some from those albums from Twice Removed From Yesterday, Bridge Of Sighs. From Earth Below, Long Misty Days Victims Of Fury and well these fine tracks that are so loved and can be one to load in cd player and take on the outside and enjoy as well. So many great albums and still plays with and so electrifying as I saw in 1975 and then in 1976. Would have loved to caught more shows/ Time of living and being along to working and along other things i went to what shows of artists and stuff so looking and reminding one of summer albums of then and even of ones now they resonate to great feeling times. Take care and hugs and till next time friends b well.
