Great CD May 23, 2008 This is a great CD. I bought this for my mother at Christmas-she just loves it. Finding this was so easy-I don't like to drive all over town(s)to hunt something down-I never do find what I'm looking for. Thanks Amazon for being so easy and priced great.
I Love This Song! August 2, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This song reminds me so much of when I was a teen, growing up when things weren't so messed up. I remember summer nights with all the kids in the neighborhood having water balloon fights, playing hide and seek, the giant spider webs that you run into at night! And the smell of jasmine in the summer air. Those are the days I go back to everytime I hear this song. Too bad kids today can't grow up the way we did back then! They have no idea what they're missing. Great, great song!!!

There's a NEW Seals & Crofts CD Available! December 1, 2004 14 out of 18 found this review helpful
Seals & Crofts have recorded their first album together after a wait of 20 years. It's called 'Traces' and was released in 2004. You can find it at iTunes (download) or CDBaby.com. Unfortunately it is not available at Amazon.com
Here are the details from their homepage (sealsandcrofts.com): "It features new versions of several hits from the 1970's, plus some newer tunes! S & C are in fine voice. Included are a total rearrangement of Hummingbird, Summer Breeze, We May Never Pass This Way Again, and Get Closer (with Dash's daughter Lua and Jimmy's daughter Juliet). Some updated album cuts are added, such as Not Be Found and Euphrates. The album's highlight, however, is the previously unreleased "Change the Copper Into Gold" (inspired by the spiritual odyssey of Dorothy Baker), a mesmerizing song that ranks among Jimmy's best."
I was wondering why most of their albums were never released on CD and again here is an answer from their homepage: "There are still no plans to release any more albums from the 1970's on cd. Only the 'Greatest Hits' and 'Summer Breeze' albums are readily available. Rhino Records, the prolific licensee of the Warners Brothers catalog, had planned a release - but initial plans to issue a multi-disc anthology were scaled back to a single disc, extended hits package that mirrors the old K-Tel 'Seals and Crofts Collection' lp, and add 'Unborn Child', 'Wisdom' and 'First Love'. However, there has been no release date issued for that disc. And so, the wait continues."
Regarding their new album, I like the rearrangements of 'Hummingbird' and 'Diamond Girl' best. And 'Change The Copper Into Gold' is a new gem, but all the tracks are wonderful... like a visit from an old friend. I highly recommend a listen.
Regarding 'Summer Breeze'... I like all the tracks but 'East of Ginger Trees' is my all time favorite. This and the 'Greatest Hits' albums were the only ones released on CD. Unfortunately many fans will never hear most of their other music (which is just as good) until the record companies decide to release it on CD. (I have 6 LPs that still sound great on my turntable. I'd love to hear them on CD!)
