Please Please PLEASE – download the version of Summertime i’ve posted today. It’s by Billy Stewart and is the perfect mix of jazz horns and soulful crooning. I find it fits incredibly well with a wednesday at the end of august. Well, it fits on any august day really.
I also have another version of it by The Roots and Bobby Womack which i love as well. I’ll post that too when i get a chance. I have to do 3 weeks of work in the next three days, so i’m a touch distracted. I can’t complain, it’s my own fault. But i get these weird obsessions with songs where i download 10 different versions spanning 50 years and listen to them all in a row. I’ll post my “Angel of the Morning” tracks one of these days too.
Just returned from my two hour french lunch. This place rocks. I can’t believe i’m not as big as a house yet. In fact i’m managing to lose weight somehow. It must be all the mayonnaise [...puzzled...].
