When you hear Bobby Goldsboro sing the lyrics of his song Summer (The First Time), it seems to be about a great sin that's going to happen ('the sun was a demon'). Millie Jackson's interpretion of the track is more about seducing than being seduced. She 's relaxed and in control ('you try not to stare'), while Bobby Goldsboro is shaking like a leaf when the 'first time' is about to begin. Although no one seemed to care at the time, nowadays the lyrics would be considered very inappropriate ('You were 31, I was 17').
Next up is a new part of Grooves From The Crates.
