there are certain albums I always play in the summertime, becos they remind me of summers past or they have a very summery feel

Here's a few from me:

Beatles - Revolver
Beatles - Sgt Pepper
Beach Boys - Very Best Of
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
Big Brother And The Holding Company - Cheap Thrills
Eagles - Best Of 71-75
Michael Jackson - Thriller
The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society
Bob Marley - Legend
Toots & The Maytals - 54-46 Was My Number: Anthology
Belinda Carlisle - Runaway Horses
The Killers - Hot Fuss

There's quite a few more I can think of.

Are there any albums you like to play in summer?
They don't even have to be summery in content.

And Blondie's Parallel Lines reminds me of going on summer holidays cuz my Dad would play it in the car.

Can't really think of a single album I do more in the summertime.

Whenever I go to the parks to chill there's often someone blasting more modern reggae (it doesn't typically feel well curated, rather a reggae radio/playlist on spotify or something. It typically sets the mood decent and all.

I suppose this song does come to mind and I suppose the more I think of it, soul/funk feels just right for the energy of summer:

Something like this too screams summer:

I think I must have heard these albums for the first time during summer, and that's probably why I like to play them in the summer.

I don't think there's ever been a seasonal influence on what I listen to.
