Summer Sun

Music, Nostalgia, Summer

This is the final week of our Summer theme. Today’s program contains songs with; ‘Sun’ or ‘Summer’ in the title. Three legends of song are featured today: Nina Simone (Here Comes The Sun), Nat King Cole (That Sunday That Summer) and Andy Williams (In The Summertime). A sad note is struck by Terry Jacks’ ‘Seasons In The Sun’. But lively music abounds too starting with ‘Summer In The City’ (Lovin’ Spoonful) and later ‘I Live For The Sun’ (The Sunrays) and Mossy’s favourite group The Beatles (I’ll Follow The Sun).
