Aquarium Drunkard Presents: Slow Summer Fadeout

When (and what) constitute the dog days of summer vary from region to region, but (like irony) one knows it when they see it. The nights get a little longer and things tend to get slower, funkier. As we round out July into August, this week's playlist is designed to help transition into said dog days...as in a month, we'll all be lusting for fall color and cooler temps. Take us away, Al Green.
