It’s impossible to hear Summertime by Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince without mentally being transported to a sun-trap of a pool in Miami, framed by palm trees, heat beating down. It could be snowing outside and the opening notes would have me slathering on the sunscreen.
Everyone has at least one tune that means summer’s here and it’s time to cast off your cares - and your clothes. Music and memory are inextricably intertwined and whether you’re cruising down the freeway or cutting the grass, nothing says “pool party!” like throwback summer tracks. Add these to your playlist…
