Lazy Sunday - Summer Soulstice


It’s been a while since the last Lazy Sunday charabanc, but with the Druidic doings afoot tomorrow, celebrating the onset of extended lazy days and short heated evenings, it seems timely to fire up a seasonal (and in places mystical) selection of summer numbers, hand-picked and slow-blended, ready to soundtrack any sunny, outdoor sipping and soothing.

Summer Soulstice



You'll find the tracklist in the comm’s to avoid being blog-walloped.

Me at the ‘Henge in my favourite top of the time

I'm guessing that pic's from the 70s because the stones aren't fenced off.

And the cool shirt kinda gives it away.

'77 Mick The year of Children of the Stones, so did a trip to Avebury too. The top was by seventies kids classics Lord Anthony an absolute fave, I wore the blooming thing wore to death. Bought from Southend shop Rosehill's - so rammed with clothing they had a pole for taking things down from high places.

Good for a lazy (ahem!) Monday morning at work too.

Mondo said...

Thanks both - I really must give the Frank Cunimondo Trio's
Wichita Lineman it's own post one day. Sort of buried treasure tucked away in there.

Delicious. And the top's pretty special too.

those were the days when touritst atractions were there to be sat on, touched and admired. Now you pay a fortune and get to stand 25 yards away. I went in th 90's but it was well roped off by then.

Felt sure you'd drop a bit of corduroy in there... perfect summer soundtrack.

It was part of my holiday clobber bought for our summer '77 holiday (1st week in North Devon, 2nd in Wiltshire).

We went back in the early 90s P and it was all roped of. Forgotten how big those stones were though, until I found this pic.

PS I used my Corduroy credits in this mix
