Ronnie McNeir

In Summertime

Sitting In My Class – 1968


This Soul song by Ronnie McNeir is about school days love. It reaches 185 on the Kev Roberts Top 500. In the main Ronnie McNeir is a smooth soul ballad singer but this one definitely belongs to Northern Soul

The ‘B’ side was also a hit on the Northern dance scene:

Isn’t She A Pretty Girl

Don’t know if you could even play this track today based purely on the title. Someone, somewhere in this age of the Millennial would no doubt object on some ridiculous grounds…
