Hot and humid today, highs in the mid-90s. It may be too hot to type later, and it's already too hot to think. Let's drink icy coolers and listen to tunes.

Tutti Frutti Punch at Ohio.com (Sipping just got a little cooler) sounds like a great pitcherful to whip up:

1 (6-oz.) can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1 oz. (2 tbsp.) grenadine
2 pints lemon sorbet
3 cups ginger ale
1 cup citrus or orange vodka (optional)
2 pints fresh strawberries, cut in half
3 lemons, cut in half-wheels

Mint springs for garnish

Combine the orange juice concentrate, lemon juice, pineapple juice and grenadine in a large container and stir well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Pour into a punch bowl.

Using a melon baller or small ice cream scoop, add the lemon sorbet to the mixture. Add the ginger ale and vodka (if desired). Garnish with the strawberries, lemons and mint.

Makes about 16 servings.

Drink up, cool down with these non-alcoholic drinks. Seatlle P-I. I'll take the cherry almond soda made with fresh cherries; leave the Cool Cucumber No'jito to the grownups.

Fresh but thin: BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN & THE E STREET BAND Independence Day: A Sirius Broadcast from Goteborg 2008 [no label, 1CD] Live at Ullevi Stadium, Goteborg, Sweden, July 4, 2008. A Sirius radio broadcast in stereo.

I don't know why Sweden's popping up -- the Detective Inspector Huss books I wrote about yesterday are set in Goteborg, too.

The real thing: THE WHO, The 1969 Soundboard Tapes Vol. 1 - Restored & Remastered [no label, 1CD]

"Personally, I believe these are all rough mixes, made from the multitracks. These shows were recorded for a live album, but the tapes were rejected. It is claimed that Pete 'burned all of the tapes". If this is true, I assume he burned the multitrack tapes, and not the mixdown tapes of which you can hear here.

Vol 2 will be available Saturday, Vol. 3 on Sunday, whenever these days start in Singapore.
