Summertime


American Routes on Public Radio International is celebrating Summertime, both the season and song.  My favorite is still Janis Joplin.  Didn't know The Zombies had a version.  My favorite song the first hour - Watermelon Man.  Anyone else listen this week?  Favorites?

My Summa Licks playlist features Summertime by Louis & Ella, The Honey Wilders, Laura Biagini, Lou Adler & Peter Gabriel, Lambert Hendricks & Ross, Keith Emerson, Courtney Pine,  An American Underdog and the modern tune by Kenny Chesney (country goes powerpop.)
Favorites are Summer's Here-Jenna Mammina (JT cover) and I Live For The Sun-Jeffery Foskett.

The most recorded song of all time with over 6,000 recorded versions!  
Many great versions, but for perspective’s sake, the way Gershwin himself originally intended it:
