Nice pick. I've been playing that song non stop. It's got a nice summertime vibe.

They are all repeating "Hot fuuun in the sum-mah-tiiiiime!" over and over again, and then all the musicians and the horns and everything just jump right back on that verse line... And the hairs on the back of my neck stand up... +1 for summer, y'all. -

If another driver's Giving me static, I always throw on Gangsta *ss Anthony... Always a nice one to p*ss off the old people. But it's all about Morris Day, though
Also, "Bra" by Cymande is dope for a summer ride. -

I picked up that LP in a 2nd hand record shop in a little town in Northern Cali called Sebastopol, late summer 2005. A few months later, I found out that Shuggie actually lives in that little town, which made the find so much more special...
I picked up George Benson's Breezin on the same day. I'd always avoided that album because it was the beginning of cheesy Benson. I remember saying that to the guy who ran the shop and he said, "Yeah, but this is good cheesy Benson". Dude was totally right, it's actually one of my favourite Benson LPs and a definite summer classic for me. -

I'll have to check out Breezin', but yeah, I got the deluxe edition of Inspiration Info on CD, and it is completely summertime chill mode. I remember that the Digable Planets sampled his "Island Letter" for their "For Corners" track, which is a good summer beat in itself. Shuggie's other stuff (Strawberry Letter 23, etc.) is all good too.

+1 for Low Rider. Still makes me think of Up In Smoke though. That's a good summer movie... "Whatever you do, don't say nothing about his birthmark, because he flips out!"
