Lineup note
I Knew The Bride into Summertime

I Knew The Bride by Dave Edmunds off Sounds Of The Seventies - Punk And New Wave (1993) belongs here because Summertime by Miles Davis and Dazed and Confused by Led Zeppelin provide a sharp two-step that extends the feeling of Can I Sit Next to You Girl by Ac/Dc without sounding automatic. They keep the emotional pressure steady, change the color from 2000s into 1950s for Summertime, and maintain hard rock with Dazed and Confused.. Summertime is waiting as the answer, so this record is doing more than setting a mood; it is shaping the turn.
