Well, fellas, the world's in a helluva shape, and seems there's not much we can do about it just now - but instead of sitting home feeling blue, let's have an old-fashioned beach party!
Sunday Drive is on summer hiatus while I offer some favorites from the mid-sixties for fun in the sun and tans on the sands.
What memories do these songs bring back for you?
Cool Jerk, The Capitols, 1966:
Call Me, Chris Montez, 1965:
You're the One, The Vogues, 1965:
Reach Out I'll Be There, The Four Tops, featuring the late, great Levi Stubbs, 1966:

I remember Chris Montez playing, and the Beach Boys (though more their later stuff) but the Four Tops strikes a chord (sic) I think it was from my first Disco experiences. Well....I was only fourteen in ’66. What a lovely selection Bubba, enjoy your hernia, sorry, hiatus. ;P
Thank you for a wonderfull post so many great memories even as a 8-9yo i was very focused on the guys and had a big crush on the Beach Boys as i grew up in a very Surfing focused area and back in those days they wore tight broadshorts or speedos which always drew my eye
Thanks for these - I Get Around has great resonance to me.
You're welcome, fellas - glad you like.
