Any Major Summer Vol. 3

Any Major Summer Vol. 3

First I gave you a summer mix when the northern hemisphere was freezing its collective ass off.

When things became milder, I offered a second summer mix to build up the anticipation.

And here, as the north has its toes (socked or not) peeping through sandals and the south puts another log on the fire, is the third mix. I dare say it is fairly eclectic fare, taking us from Nat King Cole to Hüsker Dü in about an hour.

Of course there’ll be another summer mix, when the seasons change again.

As always, the mix is timed to fit on a standard CD-R and includes home-speedoed covers. PW in comments.

    This is quite appropriate seeing as how I’ve just enjoyed two weeks of sun, sea & sangria down in the Canary Islands. Doubly so as I’ve had to endure hours of robotic Europop on the radio, in shops, cafes & buses (I know, poor, poor pitiful me!). Thank goodness for some proper music courtesy of your excellent blog. Many thanks once again.

    As always I love the pretzel logic you employ to create these delightful musical mezclas. Very much looking forward to the promised fourth volume towards the end of the season. If I may suggest, if you haven’t already considered it, to include ‘Indian Summer’ from Morrison Hotel or ‘Summer’s Almost Gone’ from Waiting For The Sun. Summertime is so HOT, HOT, HOT!!!
