November, 1976
A track from the 1976 album of the same name, 'My Sweet Summer Suite' was released as a single in the Fall of 1976. On the Billboard R & B chart it reached a high of slot 43 in November.
'Sweet Summer Suite' entered the Hot 100 pop chart in October, and maxed at position 81 on November 13.
Here is a link to the 12" version of the song. The song takes its time getting underway - the melody proper doesn't kick in till the 2:25 mark - but it's pure, undiluted 70s goodness. You can't ignore the 'burping Tupperware' notes, and the Fourth of July weekend looms. What more needs to be said ?
