Free Music Notes for 25 All-Time Greatest Summer Songs

Free Music Review: The Hottest Hits of Summer
Hit: 5 Stars

This disc rounds up the usual suspects (the Spoonful's "Summer in the City," the Vandellas' "Dancing in the Street" and Mungo Jerry's loopy "In the Summertime"), but it then goes beyond these obvious choices to also include Annette Funicello's "Beach Party," Gary "U.S." Bonds' "Schools Out" and Bruce and Terry's "Summer Means Fun." And this collection is just that--FUN!

Some of these were big hits ("Sealed with a Kiss," "Summer Wine," "Theme from 'A Summer Place'"), some weren't ("Summertime, Summertime" by the Jamies, "Let's Go Trippin'" by Dick Dale, "On the Beach (In the Summertime)" by the 5th Dimension). But they all evoke the feeling of joy and excitement that is summer. The only glaring omission is the absence of anything by the Beach Boys, but that is most likely due to licensing difficulties. However, at 25 tracks, the sheer enormity of music on this single-disc collection more than makes up for it. So if you're looking for the perfect soundtrack for your next beach party or you're simply looking to recapture the summer, this is the ideal collection. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
