Summertime

American Routes on Public Radio International is celebrating Summertime, both the season and song.  My favorite is still Janis Joplin.  Didn't know The Zombies had a version.  My favorite song the first hour - Watermelon Man.  Anyone else listen this week?  Favorites?

It's simply a solid melody that allows for a wide variety of interpretations.

Prince doing a soundcheck giving it what I imagine a bit more funk than I believe Gershwin could have ever brought to the table ;)
