This week Bruce marks the change of season & remembers summers gone by, with music from Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys, Van Morrison, The Motels, Beck and more!

Among his memories are a road trip across California's Mojave Desert in the 1990s, a 1950s visit to the drive in which resulted in the whole Springsteen family almost being killed by a deer, how he stole the lyrics to "Born To Run" from Shakespeare's "Othello" and the way that sand just gets everywhere!
