This past Wednesday there occurred the Summer Solstice, officially the first day of summer, and Beach Boy founder Brian Wilson celebrated his 70th birthday, as the reunited Beach Boys continue their concert tour celebrating their 50th anniversary as America’s Band – all this, as the Northeast experienced its first record-setting ninety-degree-plus heat wave of the new season. In recognition, this week Joel Najman’s My Place program presents an hour of memorable sun-soaked Surf Music of the 1960’s. Recordings by the Beach Boys, Jan & Dean, the Surfaris and many others are featured.
