I think I probably offered it up in previous years...but I make no apologies for repeating here again :

This is always the tune that, musically, for some reason, always screams Summer the most to me....

As Billy Stewart has been posted on this thread, I'm putting this classic tune up....... Summer or no Summer !

Slim Smith's version was the first version I ever heard, only discovering afterwards that Billy Stewart did the original.

Get the Ponce Mohammed Buzzer dude on this, he has knack of pulling out cracking tunes which I love and would otherwise have never encountered!

Genuine big thanks.

I'll try not to disappoint.

Very nice Summertime remix there Buzzer.

Here's another, this time from United Future Organization.

Was hoping youtube would have Swansway's version, but no joy. I have it on the B side of their Soul Train 12".

By the way Buzzer, is that THE REAL TUESDAY WELD doing that Billie remix ?

Hi matey. Thanks for the kind words on the blog btw and the radio show you linked to is the biz. I don't think it's 'the Real Tuesday Weld'. These are all remixes straight from the master tapes as far as I can tell and the sleevenotes credit the remix by Scott Schlachter whoever he is.

If I can hijack the thread for just one tune....there is another remixed and reimagined album...this time with Nina Simone and it knocks the Billie Holliday album out of the water.

Just listen to this remix of Funkier than a Mosquito's Tweeter from the album. This could possibly the greatest tune EVER remix written by anyone anywhere at any time EVER. I could listen to this all day every day. Love it, I really do love it.

Great minds. I was thinking of picking the Sarah Vaughan version but remembered the remix of Billie Holliday. I've not heard this remix before. Thanks for sharing.
