"I want to be in a summer place," she says, unable to feel her fingers as she types.
A peaceful bit of music heading into the weekend. Actually this was in an episode of The Simpsons I watched last night and it's been stuck in my head all morning.
Perfect for a Sunday morning. Original recording from 1960.

By show of virtual hands, how many of you have actually seen 'A Summer Place'? It is my theory - backed up by some thorough (Facebook) research - that most people know the tune, but very few have encountered it in its original context.

Percy Faith and his orchestra perform Max Steiner's theme of the classic 1959 film, "A Summer Place" complimented by clips from the movie. Who can forget the beautiful Sandra Dee and handsome Troy Donahue, the perfect embodiment of yearning romantic youth? Or Richard Egan and Dorothy McGuire as old flames trapped in loveless marriages, who find their way back to each other, igniting a firestorm as their children fall in love with one another and their respective spouses (Constance Ford and Arthur Kennedy) battle it out over control of the kids? Step back on the nostalgia train for this golden classic. Enjoy!
