Threads and Tangents 6/21/22 - Summer

This week, the musical thread is Summer. Makes perfect sense since Tuesday was the Summer Solstice. 
The most popular summer songs tend to be about cars and sunshine and romance, all things designed to make us feel nostalgic and joyful when we hear them. So, we’ll have plenty of those; and to go along with them, a few that are a bit darker. 
The musicians we'll hear are: Eva Cassidy, Dick Dale, The Hold Steady, It's A Beautiful Day, Lovin’ Spoonful, Martha Reeves & the Vandellas, NRBQ, Pavement, Quicksilver Messenger Service, The Ramones, Jonathan Richman, Sly & the Family Stone, Loudon Wainwright, The Who, and Wilco.
