"Summer" by War (1976) lol


other songs that sound like summer to me...

***"Everybody Loves The Sunshine" by Roy Ayers (1976)---makes me think of a lazy Saturday afternoon in the 70s....at the park,having a barbeque with family and friends.Finess knows what I'm talking about,lol....this song has that laid-back,summery vibe.

***"I Remember Yesterday" by Donna Summer (1977)---actually,the entire album is like a soundtrack to a long hot summer.

***"Getaway" by Earth Wind and Fire (1976)

***"Moonlight Feels Right" by Starbuck (1976)


yeah I know...I'm partial to the 70s lol

Folks mentioning Summertime by Fresh Prince should listen to Kool & The Gang's Summer Madness if they don't know it.
