I assume this song is called 'Summertime' or some variation thereof (it's not the Gershwin song). I heard it on an oldies station, and it was performed by a happy-go-lucky white-sounding vocal group, with the lyrics talking about summer and the word summertime used heavily in the chorus. It sounded to be from the 50s or thereabouts, and the song's most defining characteristic was its prominent use of a harpsichord. There were also some rather interesting harmonizations that were more classically 'european' sounding than I would imagine was most radio fare of the day. Does anybody have any idea what this song is or who it's by?
