Look out for others, listen to people who are going through tough times like you and let them know they're loved and appreciated. The world needs more kindness-especially with all the extremists out there coming from all directions. Don't lost hope or give up on yourself and help others keep from giving up on themselves.

I was 16 in 1970 and I worked in a pickle packing plant after school, along with my older brother and several friends. We would all pile into one car together to ride down to the pickle plant for our afternoon shift to start. One day, In the Summertime by Mungo Jerry came on the radio and at full volume we had our first listen to a very hip sounding song and artist. over the next few days as we made our way to work all packed in the 63 Chevy together, we learned the lyrics and mouth percussion. We would sing along at full radio volume and our voices together. It was one of those best buddy shared moments ever! We still laugh all these years later when the song and our antics arise. God Love Ya Ray, You are a memory, and music maker! Ronster

always felt this was among one of the top most underrated songs ever , its just a brilliant stroke of genius and IMO any song that instantly puts a smile on your face no matter the mood you are in will never go out of style or feel dated , and this song just always seems so so so fresh , something we really need today !!

You are a genius to have composed this track! in 1970 I was 15 and listened to it on jukeboxes! A "tube" which has been around the world! I later became a professional drummer-composer! This track which looks simple is actually very rich and well thought out! the groove, the feeling, the melody, the rhythm are UNIQUE! My best regards from France.

What an amazing guy Ray "Mungo Jerry" Dorset is. He wrote and recorded this song over 50 years ago and he looks, plays and sings exactly like he did back in the day. I love his self-deprecating humour. "Anyone can play this". Yes, but not anyone can write it and turn it into a number 1 single. What a lovely guy. I wish all musicians were like this.

Musicians - one of the greatest gifts ever to be bestowed upon us. Cannot imagine a life without music, and being born in the mid 60's I can certainly say that this song always brings back such great memories. The variety of music being produced during the 70's was just amazing, the musical creative juices flowed non stop. Thank you for such a wonderful song - all my life this song has brought happiness out of me every time i hear it.

I absolutely loved that song. Such a fun song from my youth. I still sing it today. Those were the best days of my life, muscle cars, best music, beautiful girls, no tats, piercing or bras. 😅 Had it made and didn't even know it.

WoW....Mungo Jerry is so cool! In 1970 l was 14 years old, and my favorite band was CCR, but I absolutely loved "In The Summertime"'. Definitely one of the greatest songs on the radio that year. Thanks Jerry for teaching your guitar parts and technique for a song that has been in my head for 54 years.🎸

I was only a little kid when this song came out and somehow it stuck with me all my life. Every summer it would come back to me and it was one of the very first things I tried doing on a guitar. Now I’m almost 60 and the song is used in all summer commercials of a well known supermarket chain in my country (Switzerland) It will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for sharing with us how it is played: will teach it to my kids and its magic will live on…in the summertime

My daughter, when 5, picked up on the mouth percussion when she first heard it. She understood it and was doing it herself on replays. That is why I hold this song dear. This song will be known in 4 1/2 centuries, if not millenias.
