"Heat Wave"

"Heat Wave"
Explored! Thank you very much :-)

HFF, everyone :-)

Now to go off at a bit of a tenuous tangent in choosing a 'Sight and Sound' link :-)

I found a list of the 100 Greatest (Classic) R&B/Soul Songs. My photo is of All Souls College in Oxford. "Heatwave" by Martha Reeves & the Vandellas is listed at number 16 so this is my choice :-)

Added to ~ Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

And, we mustn't forget the version by Linda Ronstadt :-)

Whoa. What a beauty, Roger!

It must have been hot that day and I can't think of a better song for it. Linda's version always wins for me although they are both really good.

Belated HFF and I hope you and Helen are enjoying your weekend. :)

Thanks so very much, Karen :-) Linda always wins for me too :-) Yes, it was pretty hot that day but the beauty of Oxford is that there are plenty of shady places if it gets too hot :-) And, I know there is no need to rush around to get that winning photo because within a matter of days or weeks I will be back again looking for a winner :-)))

A belated HFF and wishing you and yours a great week ahead :-)

An elegant and beautiful building Roger, and a nicely composed shot. I enjoyed both of the links, - I have the Martha Reeves version on a 'Motown Story' boxed LP set and the Linda Ronstadt link is excellent - I love her voice. A belated HFF and have a good week

A wonderful building and a nicely composed image captured in beautiful light,
My personal choice is for the Linda Ronstadt version but as a long time fan i guess I would,
sad to read of her health problems.

Thank you very much, Roger. For as long as I can remember I have been a fan too :-)
