ââSummer Nightsâ was one of the first songs we wrote for the 5150 record, on our very first day in the studio. Eddie played me that guitar riff and I just started singing âsummer nights and my radio,â and the rest of the lyrics just came out like a river of consciousness. I donât think thereâs a better theme song for a beautiful summer night, so it had to be the first track this summer from the live album.â -Sammy
