The Lovin' Spoonful - Summer In The City (Hot Mono 45)

By far the "hottest" (loudest) record in my collection. Even with a heavy-duty "DJ" cartridge and preamp I'm sure it would still sound distorted, but the maxed-out sound lends a certain unique flavor to the song.

Is that the original?

Hot town summer in the city Back of my neck getting dirt and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around people looking half dead Walking on the sidewalk hotter than a match head But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on and dance all night Despite the heat it will be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the night In the summer in the city

Isn't it hard to imagine your grandmother being around your age listening to this a lot like you are now? (Minus the Youtube.)
