Fine, so it’s nearly July, but this summer-themed mix by the FBFY bedraggled crew of music lovers will be good for a couple of months yet. Drunken comments are encouraged<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Feel Bad for June! Just in time for the first New England heat wave of 2015, and my bum is sticking to my vinyl chair. Ahhh summer! Long hot days, warm breezy nights. Sitting in your overly air conditioned office all day, wishing you were at the lake. Being an adult sucks. <\/p>\n

Thanks to our main man Phil for the killer artwork!”<\/p>\n

1. “It Must Be Summer”
\nFountains of Wayne
\nUtopia Parkway<\/em> (1999)
\nSubmitted By: @philnorman<\/a>
\nComments: It must be summer, because I’m falling apart.<\/p>\n

2. “This Summer”
\nThe Royal Sea
\nThe Royal Sea<\/em> (2011)
\nSubmitted By: The Mad Mackerel<\/a>
\nComments: The Royal Sea\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s album was a particular favourite for us in 2011, although never seemed to get the acclaim we thought it deserved. A beguiling mix of surf rock, garage and indie pop, lead track This Summer opens with a spectacularly catchy drum beat before the vocals of Timmy Sunshine come in like a rush of sugar coated adrenalin, plaintively announcing:<\/p>\n

We crashed everybody\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s parties,
\nwe drank cheap wine and whiskey.
\nWe partied up on the rooftops,
\nI\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m glad it was just you and me.<\/em><\/p>\n

One of our favourite songs of that, or any other year, “This Summer” should have been the woozy, feel good hit of that summer.<\/p>\n

3. “Acceleration
\nDrivin’ N’ Cryin’
\nSongs About Cars, Space and The Ramones<\/em> EP (2012)
\nSubmitted By: @tincanman2010<\/a>
\nComments: My iPod gets a spring cleaning to get ready for road trips. No point trying to listen to delicate little songs with their pretty little lyrics when you’re booking down the highway with windows wide open. Thirty years these Atlanta dudes have been racking up the miles.<\/p>\n

4. “Summer’s Kiss”
\nThe Afghan Whigs
\nBlack Love<\/em> (1996)
\nSubmitted By: hoosier buddy<\/a>
\nComments: I nearly submitted Chuck Prophet’s “Summertime Thing,” but something made me keep looking until I hooked into “Summer’s Kiss.” The intro builds from an almost space jam to a driving, Lindsey Buckingham-style one note guitar solo; then explodes with big drums, bigger guitars, and Dulli. “Do you know the words? Sing along with me; and put on your rose fur coat, baby, it’s 1973.” Demons mess with his head and heart. He wishes he had her back, but admits he is alone. We are all alone.<\/p>\n

5. “Summer Babe [Live]”
\nPavement
\nSlanted & Enchanted: Luxe & Reduxe<\/em> (2002)
\nSubmitted By: @BoogieStudio22<\/a>
\nComments: Slacker rock at its best!<\/p>\n

6. “Constructive Summer”
\nThe Hold Steady
\nStay Positive<\/em> (2008)
\nSubmitted By: @BoogieStudio22<\/a>
\nComments: When The Hold Steady was good, they were great!<\/p>\n

7. “Summertime”
\nJanis Joplin
\n18 Essential Songs<\/em> (1995)
\nSubmitted By: @BoogieStudio22<\/a>
\nComments: This song still gives me chills, even in the heat of the summer.<\/p>\n

8. “Sleep All Summer”
\nCrooked Fingers
\nDignity and Shame<\/em> (2005)
\nSubmitted By: @Rockstar_Aimz<\/a>
\nComments: Try not to spend your summer brooding over lost love. Or something. <\/p>\n

9. “Summer School”
\nLiquor Giants
\nEvery Other Day At A Time<\/em> (1998)
\nSubmitted By: @toomuchcountry<\/a>
\nComments: I was ready to listen to this band when their first album was released. Ward Dotson fronted the Liquor Giants, and I was a fan of his previous band, The Pontiac Brothers.<\/p>\n

10. “Your Frown’s My Friend”
\nGreg Summerlin
\nThe Young Meteors<\/em> (2005)
\nSubmitted By: @toomuchcountry<\/a>
\nComments: OK, so it’s not a song ABOUT summer. But it’s still a pretty kickin song by someone WITH summer in his name.<\/p>\n

11. “Over The Red Cedar”
\nCharlie Parr
\nSumpjumper<\/em> (2015)
\nSubmitted By: @Truersound<\/a>
\nComments: Great song off his latest<\/p>\n

12. “Rainbow Sign”
\nThe Buckstankle Boys
\nThe New Young Fogies Vol. 1<\/em> (2012)
\nSubmitted By: @Truersound<\/a>
\nComments: Met these guys at Mt. Airy, which is where they hail from. Some astounding talent.<\/p>\n

13. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Strictly Business\u00e2\u20ac\u009d

14. “Summer Wine”
\nHazeldine
\nDigging You Up<\/em> (1998)
\nSubmitted by: @simon2307<\/a>
\nComments: Great cover of the classic Lee Hazelwood \/ Nancy Sinatra tune<\/p>\n

15. “Summer Wine”
\nLana Del Ray
\nUnreleased? (Youtube rip)
\nSubmitted by: @simon2307<\/a>
\nComments: ditto<\/p>\n

16. “Long Hot Summer Days”
\nTurnpike Troubadors
\nDiamonds and Gasoline<\/em> (2010)
\nSubmitted By: @Rockstar_Aimz<\/a>
\nComments: Fantastic John Hartford cover. Can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t wait for their new album to be released this coming fall.<\/p>\n

17. “You Keep Me Hanging On”
\nVanilla Fudge
\nVanilla Fudge<\/em> (1966)
\nSubmitted By: @PopaTunes<\/a>
\nComments: While there are plenty of newer summer songs, summer takes me back to my youth, spinning records on a portable record player in the woods in the mountains, sharing new music with my summer friends. This one was a staple summer after summer. One I remember most though is Archie Bell and the Drells tighten up, which is at my kid’s house.<\/p>\n

18. “Red Umbrella”
\nKostars
\nKlassics with a “K”<\/em> (1996)
\nSubmitted by: April @ Now This Sound Is Brave<\/a>
\nComments: Not about summer, per se (the lyrics talk about a rainy day, in fact), the vibe of this song by Kostars is summery as fuck. This song from the side project of Jill Cunniff and Vivian Trimble of Luscious Jackson brings to mind the tropicalia sound of classics like “The Girl from Ipanema” and feels like a cool breeze blowing in off the ocean. <\/p>\n

19. “Far From Any Road”
\nThe Handsome Family
\nSinging Bones (2003)
\nSubmitted By: Trailer<\/a>
\nComments: True Detective returns June 21. What better time to recall the haunting theme song from season 1?<\/p>\n

20. “Boss”
\nThe Rumblers
\nThe Roots Of The Cramps<\/em> (2009)
\nSubmitted By: @annieTUFF<\/a>
\nComments: I can’t get enough surf music, what says summer more than surf? I love how dirty and gritty this is. The whole comp “Roots Of The Cramps” is really great. I’m gonna be honest, I didn’t know how many of the Cramps songs I loved were covers until years later, and it’s fun to check out the originals. <\/p>\n

21. “Two Kegs In The Swimming Pool”
\nMike Kelly
\nWake The Dead<\/em> (2010)
\nSubmitted By: @RomeoSidVicious<\/a>
\nComments: It’s looking like it’s going to a damp, hot summer here in Houston and I didn’t want to go with the obvious songs complaining about that state of affairs so I dug deep and pulled out this Mike Kelly tune. The summer relation is that there’s obviously a swimming pool involved and for most of the country those are only involved in summer activities. I think plenty of us have lived the night described here, although I’ve never been able to afford two kegs…<\/p>\n

22. “Hot Fun In The Summertime”
\nSly & The Family Stone
\nGreatest Hits<\/em> (1970)
\nSubmitted By: Blabber’n’Smoke<\/a>
\nComments: Reminds me of hot days in the excellent summers of the seventies.<\/p>\n

23. “The Warmth of the Sun”
\nThe Beach Boys
\nEndless Summer<\/em> (1974)
\nSubmitted By: @Rockstar_Aimz<\/a>
\nComments: A little melancholy to end the mix, but what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a summer mix without the Beach Boys? This song was originally released in 1964.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
