60's Tune

[mally m]

Hi you clever lot. I have one to test your brains/memories.
I know the tune but do not know who played it or what the name is. It's an instrumental and I think it originated from the 60's as it reminds me of when I was a kid. I think it had summer in the name and it was one of Paul Wellers top 10 favs on Virgin. Thanks

Could it be 'Theme from a Summer Place" - by the Percy Faith Orchestra?

Naomi24 is right. A segment on BBC Radio 2 called "Tracks Of My Years" listed Paul's favourite 10 tracks as:

The Beatles - Penny Lane
Percy Faith Orchestra - Theme From A Summer Place
Sister Sledge - Thinking Of You
Curtis Mayfield - The Makings Of You
The Casuals - Jesamine
Aretha Franklin - Oh Me Oh My
The Kinks - I See My Friend
Rose Royce - Wishing On A Star
David Ruffin - Walk Away From Love
Pharrell & Jay Z - Frontin'

You're the nuts Naomi. It is Theme from a summer place by Percy Faith. Down loaded it on Limewire. Thanks.
