Walter Egan - Hot Summer Nights

There was a time, not too far gone
When I was changed by just a song
On the radio, in my car
The pounding electric guitar
Then the time came to make our stand
We started up a four-piece band
And the heat felt like spotlights
In the heart of a hot summer night, yeah
Hot summer nights
Hot summer nights

Return with me to when times were best
We were friends that could pass any test
We shared our hopes, our dreams, and our goals
And the fundamental roll
As we sang in the hot, dark rooms
Happy just to play our tunes
We felt good when we did it right
We felt good on a hot summer night, yeah
Hot summer nights
Hot summer nights, yeah

So it lives, and it always will
Those songs we sung are in us still
Ringing out with all their might
In the heart of a hot summer night, yeah
Hot summer nights
Hot summer nights, yeah

dre didnt find the sample a producer named doc ish did and he made the beat..but then dre got it and made it what it is

[nogoodbastid]

you can hear both songs back to back and go "i kinda get it," but it's not nearly as obvious as a lot of rap samples.dr. dre sampled a lot of shit early in his career and got sued for it. by this point in his career he understands that it's best to cut the deal now with the artist before the record comes out instead of let them sue you and let the judge decide that they get 99% of the profit because you were stealing.

I used to know Walt way back when in California. What a great writer and performer. It is one of the great travesties of Rock and Roll that Walt didn't get HUGE. Love ya, Man!
