Lyd the SBW gets into the many sounds and feelings of summer in this episode. Didn’t know the album cover of Big Brother & Holding Company featured a mammy caricature until after recording it and went to find the music for the episode. Pretty much sums up the way many consume and claim to admire the art and cultures of “others.” And yes, “Summer in the City” was first recorded by the Lovin’ Spoonful but it’s the Q version that’s funkiest and lends itself to sampling.

The SpaceTimeMusic theme music is a sample of the Ana-Tole x Jonah Christian Remix of Ready or Not by the Fugees.
