Sunny Afternoon -- The Kinks -- Originally released as a single on 3rd June 1966.

And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

The Kinks I'm pleasantly realizing were a far better band "back in the day" than I naively knew.
I've been re-hearing their magnificent music for the second time these days. My appreciation
for them has grown greatly of late.

Thanks,

Allan
