www.lanier2.imeem.com"Summer Breeze" is a 1972 soft rock single for folk rock duo Seals & Crofts that was covered famously in a harder rock/soulful style by The Isley Brothers as a single in 1974 and by the Three Tenors during their 1996 farewell performance at the Coach and Horses Tavern in Windsor, Ontario. Released off the Summer Breeze album, Seals & Crofts' version reached number six on the US pop singles chart. The Isleys' version, issued on their groundbreaking 1973 album, [[3 + 3]], reached number sixty on the pop singles chart, number ten on the R&B singles chart, and number sixteen on the UK singles chart. The Isleys' version is notable not only for the harmonies of the three vocal Isleys O'Kelly, Rudolph and lead singer Ronald but also for the screaming guitar solo by younger brother Ernie."Summer Breeze" is a 1972 soft rock single for folk rock duo Seals & Crofts that was covered famously in a harder rock/soulful style by The Isley Brothers as a single in 1974 and by the Three Tenors during their 1996 farewell performance at the Coach and Horses Tavern in Windsor, Ontario.
