Billy Stewart (1937-1970) era uno de los principales activos del sello Chess. Su particular fraseo está presente en la mejor interpretación, en clave R&B, que se haya hecho nunca del standard "Summertime" de George Gershwin, aquí grabada para las cámaras de un famoso programa estadounidense emitido en 1966, del que no citaré el nombre por razones de copyright.
De entre la miriada de versiones que existen de este clásico, en mi opinión, destacaría la reformulación "blue beat" que lanzaron los Shake Spears en un disco de procedencia belga en 1966, también son plato de mi gusto la adaptación anfetamínica de los suecos Bootjacks y la "jazzistica" recreación de The Zombies, estas dos últimas versiones fechadas en 1965.
Por supuesto que cualquiera de las anteriormente mencionadas es, cualitativamente hablando, un 500% superior a esa basura sobreactuada que perpetraron, unos pocos años después, Janis Joplin y su cohorte de onanistas rascacuerdas a cuenta de este tema.
Los que la habeis sufrido en vuestros castigados pabellones auditivos ya sabeís de que hablo, de la más espantosa pesadilla hippie, repleta de grititos y solos infumables, que impunemente acabó destrozando una las mejores canciones de la historia.
