"Night Moves" definitely takes me back to Summer 1977

How about "Spill the Wine" by Eric Burdon for a lazy summer day feel?

A newer song that is probably off the radar for most of you is "All Summer Long" by Kid Rock, sweet rememberances of a summer long past with undertones of Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London" and Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama".

That summer sound sounds like a nightmare to me! Werewolves is one of those songs I can't turn the channel fast enough! I like Warren Zevon but I can't stand THAT song! Likewise, I like the song Sweet Home Alabama but seriously dislike Lynyrd Skynyrd - simply because of that TERRIBLE song Freebird that was played at EVERY high school dance I went to and it starts off all nice and slow and you're slow dancing and then WHAM! they switch over to rock 'n' roll that NO ONE can dance to! And yet we were COMPELLED to go out and dance to it knowing the consequences! Awkward teenage moments I can never forget. I'll get Alzheimers (runs in the family) and THAT will be the one thing I'll never forget! Argggg!

Oh, Carl thought of "Afternoon Delight" by Starland Vocal Band or "Midnight at the Oasis" by Maria Muldaur! LOL
