fanvid for Sly & The Family Stone performing Hot Fun In The Summertime

Old friends, and long-time followers of this humble blog will know that this tune holds a special place in my heart. It captures both the laid back feel, as well as the romantic connotations and connections that meant so much in my (our) youth. It gives us the anticipation, and the (grudging) acceptance, of what exists in that period we call Summer. I consider it THE perfect song to begin and end the Season, ever since it was released in '69, and have made a point of listening to it each Labor Day since then. So should you. 40+ years later, it still speaks to me.
