It was reported early on August 16th that Aretha Franklin, whose gospel-rooted singing and bluesy yet expansive delivery earned her the title "the Queen of Soul" had died.

Enjoy.
Today is Monday 2 July 2018, it’s just after 7pm and the temperature outside has dropped to a measly 25c... in this studio... it’s an oven!
It’s a fair bet that the summer won’t get any better than it’s been over the last few weeks... it may get worse... but doubtful it’ll get much better... fingers crossed eh!
For that reason, some of the current chart, plus some nice summer tunes that I’ve not played during this series, from over the years, plus a mix of cool jazz thrown in for good measure. Ice cream later perhaps!
As the sunshine blazed across Britain during the European heat wave of 2006, the country saw the hottest July temperature ever recorded! Thermometers in Surrey hit 36.5°C (almost 98°F).
Here are some hot tunes from Rihanna, James Morrison, and Lilly Allen from the chart dates August 6th 2006
Including some great music from Take That, Boyzone, Diana King, Seal, and Supergrass. Here’s what was Top of the Pops w/e August 6th 1995. And I know at least one person who's going to cry!
Seems there wasn't a good summer during the 80's however whether you were donning your finest spandex and getting tiddly on Cinzano or putting on the leathers and devil-fingering to Guns'n'Roses, it'll still goes down as the most diverse, eclectic and extravagant decade in recent cultural history.
Here is some of the music from the 80's, including The Specials, Talking Heads, Joy Division, Fleetwood Mac, Michael Jackson and Paul Simon.
Longest Hottest Summer (Chart w/e 8th August 1976)
70,170KB 01hr 54m 24s This show will NOT fit onto a Music CD.
There has never been a longer period of constant heat than there was in the summer of '76! Temperatures in the UK reached more than 32°C (almost 90°F) every day for 15 days non-stop!
Most parts of the country went for well over a month without any rainfall at all and water was rationed by the newly-appointed Minister for Drought. Yes, you heard that right, the Prime Minister really felt the need to appoint a man to take charge of the lack of rain... and he did... on August Bank Holiday it poured!
With some great music from w/e 8th August 1976 including Demis Rousos, Jimmy James & The Vagabonds, David Dundas, Dr Hook, Bryan Ferry, Thin Lizzy, and at the beginning of six weeks during the longest hottest summer in living memory, Elton John & Kiki Dee were #1.
Starting with, possibly the strangest track to grace the charts, Winifred Shaw singing a great song, Lullaby of Broadway... why? Because some pigs danced to it in The Muppets Show!
Summer of Lurve (Chart w/e 9th August 1967)
76,674KB 01hr 03m 26s This show will fit onto a Music CD.
Nothing could be more different than the culture and music during the 50's and 60's. We could talk about cultural difference all day and still not get to the bottom of it.
Music, however is easier to define. Late 50's country music came into its own before rock-n-roll took off in the 60's while jazz and classical music continued to innovate. To one extent or another.
I'm not responsible for that theory, but you can read more here - https://livinghistoryfarm.org/farminginthe50s/life_19.html
In a relatively short period of time, seven years since 1959, music was, comparatively, unrecognisable. Remember what you parents used to say?
By 1967 it had got to a whole new level! It may have been the summer of love, but the weather let it down... it was hot in other ways! The 'Summer of Love' refers to 1967 - not so much because that year saw a revolutionary new movement, but because that was when the media first came to notice the hippy phenomenon. The underground alternative youth culture that had been brewing in America and Europe for several years... let's take a listen.
With music from the chart w/e 9th August 1967, including the Small Faces, Aretha Franklin, Desmond Dekker, Mamas & Papas, Pink Floyd, Stevie Wonder, Beatles, and, of course, Scott McKenzie... this is, the Summer of Lurve.
NEXT WEEK, THE SUMMER TO END ALL SUMMERS - 1976
Fifties Summer of 1959 (New & Climbers Top 30 w/e 7 August 1959)

Welcome to a new series of shows celebrating hot summers! The UK doesn't do hot summers but every now and again we have a belter.
During this series of seven shows we'll be featuring one particularly hot year per decade, except the 1980's who didn’t seem bother with hot summers!
Incidentally, that's seven decades worth of music!
So, here’s as far back as we can go... Still thought by many (who are old enough to remember it), as one of the best summers ever experienced in the UK, the summer of 1959 was a long and happy summer for all! Temperatures rose above 21°C (70°F) and stayed there daily for a period of over three months!
With music from the chart w/e 7 August 1959, including tracks by Ricky Nelson, Anthony Newley, Connie Francis, Elvis Presley, and Lonnie Donegan... Here are the New tracks & Climbers.
Now, the more observant of you will notice Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody was the last track last week and the first this week! Well, last week I commented that Bohemian Rhapsody was the final #1 of 1975, and asked what followed it as the first # 1 of 1976… and that the clue was in the lyrics… listen to the second track!
Hi, welcome to the newer, slower version of The Show With No Name! During the show, following on from last week, we’re featuring contemporary hits and classic hits from years with an 8 at the end,,, all the way back to 1958! This week we’ve music from Craig David, The Beach Boys, Dimelo and 10cc, to name but a few. PLUS, about halfway through, more vintage comedy. This week its Armpit Threatre, blatantly stolen, as last week’s show was, from the BBC’s Round The Horne.
We've been asked to play "Mad Dogs & Englishmen", as regularly featured in the show... here it is!
Beast from the East, Classic and current hits, Years with an 8 at the end, 58, 68, 78, 88, 98, 2008... Radio like what it used to be!
So just as I was sitting down, “Hey Keith, Can you do a Disco Show please?” Now I’m a bit of a 70s Disco and Funk freak, it comes with age, so I thought... “Why not!” If you’d like a special show, special music... that sort of stuff, let me know via email, askkeith@tracksofmylife.com and I’ll see what I can do! Anyway, here’s two hours 70’s, and just a hint of 80’s, disco and funk starting with... well what else...
Robert Stanley (Bob) Crewe was an American songwriter, dancer, singer, manager, and record producer. He was known for producing, and co-writing with Bob Gaudio, a string of Top 10 singles for the Four Seasons. Want to know more? Listen to the show!
Back to the 70s & 80s was my fist, regular show on Internet radio. Running for 61 episodes, at it’s peak featured on over seventy radio station around the world. Back to the 70s & 80s was a 2 hour show including ad breaks, hence this is less than 2 hours! Here’s show one from November, 2015
This weeks offering looks at nonsense words... and listens to some pretty good nonsense words to boot!
Happy NEW Year to you from all of us here at Tracks of my life dot com, it’s been a while but have we got a show for you... YOU’RE GONNA LOVE IT! Who says the party’s over just because it’s part way through January Phil, Barry and Tony don’t think it’s over... they’re celebrating their birthdays with a Tracks of my life dot com show just for them and some of the music they chose is featured in this show... Tune In, Cop Out!
An hour of songs by the ladies! There are more, I was spoilt for choice, they're all good!
Music from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and the best of today, recorded as live from our UK studio!
This week’s show sans me! Lost my voice, some people would say that’s a good thing... what it means is more time for some great music!
TRACKS OF MY LIFE - Time Isn't Real According to BuzzFeed, these are 17 songs, released a decade ago, that will make you go "Time Isn't Real"... what do you think? DOWNLOADABLE!
Stax was, originally, based in Memphis, Tennessee. It was founded in 1957 as Satellite Records, and changed its name to Stax in 1961. Following the death of Stax's biggest star, Otis Redding, in 1967, they expanded their operations significantly, in order to compete with their main rival, Motown Records. I can’t remember what inspired me to record a one hour show based on the STAX record label. Probably because they produced some great music, perhaps because Arthur Connelly’s Sweet Soul Music showcased STAX artists, except James Brown and the title track it’s self. What I do remember is thinking it would be a great idea to mix all the performers together! So let’s start with that, here’s Arthur Connelly, Sam & Dave, Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding, and James Brown!
Hello, and welcome to a Tracks of my Life Eclectic Special – recorded, as live, from our UK studios - anything can happen during the next 2 hours... sounds like Thunderbirds!

Up first, Dooley Wilson... who? You’ll know him when you hear him!
Hello and welcome to this special edition of Tracks of my Life where we’ll be looking at the North Staffordshire cabaret club Jollees, one week in particular, w/c January 25th, 1976. With music from Biddu, Barry White, Gloria Gaynor, Queen... and a whole lot more!
Tracks of my Life where you’re never more than a few moments away from a classic hit, and never truer than this week... we have some great music from THE SUPREMES, KALIN TWINS, THE MONKEES, MADONNA, EDDIE COCHRAN, ERIC CLAPTON, and HALL & OATS.
During the show we’ll be looking at the charts of 1955 and 1963. Chosen because they are iconic in as much as the 1955 chart features the first Rock & Roll track to reach #1. However 1963 was different. It was the year that saw the Beatles first chart!
BUZZFEED recently released 24 of the most Brilliant Songs You Need In Your June Playlist.
