Nice review, Mark. I definitely associate certain songs with summer (and in fact will dig them out in the dead of winter to fight cabin fever and mid-winter blues). And the cooler/box is great... clumsy on the CD shelf, but a very cool marketing ploy.

Van Halen is defintely great for the summer...especially that first record.

...I'm from New England, where we have our own idea of the Mason-Dixon line...I think it's just somewhere south of Hartford Here in southern Connecticut -- just south of Hartford -- we put it at just south of Long Island, but your point is well-taken. Summer music is a neat concept, fitting right in with staying up late at night and aimlessly driving around in cars. When I was a kid and we actually listened to radio, summertime had a vibe all its own, for sure.

90 degrees? We'd put on long-sleeve shirts if we dropped into the 90s! =) This collection sounds like a lot of fun.
