Summer Cruisin"-- Name That Tune-- Part 1

Proper cruisin' music for those old roads.

What better way to cruise down the road during the summer than with some summer songs playing on the old cassette player in your car.

Back on the first weekend of summer, June 27th, Bob Stroud had his annual ode to the heat Summer show. Every song has something to do with something we might do during the BEST season around.

As an added bonus, Gayle gets to play a little name-that-tune (don't ever play her this game with 80s songs if you want to have a chance). Answers Below. I will give the first one as I've never heard of it before.

I missed: Racing in the Street, Hot Summer Day, Summer Nights. Bit it helps to hear the song. i was listening to the show.

There were 37 songs, so I will have more tomorrow. We've got some boating to get to, anyway.
