It’s now officially summer and everything so here’s a stone cold classic 7″ celebrating the joys of the season. Fizzing with youthful energy, summer sunshine and pure pop joy all squeezed into just over a minute and a half by the greatest singles band ever to emerge from our comrade Snoddy’s homeland. In recent years the Undertones general wonderfulness has been a little obscured by the all-conquering genius of their debut single Teenage Kicks but they produced a run of singles which are each in their own way, perhaps some more than others, undeniably great. This is but one. As a little added bonus (‘cos we’ve been slack, ‘cos it’s great etc) we’re adding their second single Get Over You for your listening pleasure.

Both are on their brilliant self -titled debut which you can get for about £5, money well spent. They’ve also been reissuing the singles, with B-sides and bonus live versions digitally via i-tunes if that’s your sort of thing, and the albums too with plenty of bonus stuff added on. I’m sticking with my vinyl and nostalgia for my lost youth at the moment…………
