It was hot as a mug in Lexington today. So hot in fact, that I couldn’t help but think of the great times I had in my hometown of Farmer City, Illinois. There was only one place to be in the middle of the hot and balmy Midwest summer – The Farmer City Public Pool. We spent our days not wearing sunscreen, mixing up Suicides (you’re old if you know what that is), trying to get a glimpse of Andi Huff in her red bikini, and listening to great 70′s and 80′s music. Here’s a short list of songs I have clear memories of – and if this thing gets any views, there just might be more next week.
And seriously, I’ve never posted this song before? I’m slipping.
Ah…memories from the pool!!! Thanks for the flashback!

I was guilty of the one song from Quarterflash, but REO have clearly proven they’re a classic all this time later.
