    Good summer music manages to combine goofy fun with contemporary fashion. It sort of rolls up the cheesiest bits of modern-day pop culture and shoots it at you like a spitball.

    Sometimes it’s good plain fun, and other times it’s just plain stupid. This show bounces from the sublime to the ridiculous, then back again, but almost every song here bares the obvious stamp of summer music, even if it was a summer from 50 years ago.

    1) If You Need Me – Solomon Burke

    2) Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport – Rolf Harris
