>Ann Peebles,

- ah, yes. thank-you. it was out one of the (many) times i had
little or no cash - iirc, i was working at derwent plastics or
at sam smiths, needing to pay off my end-of-degree-course over-
draft, at the time it came out - and i've never seen a record,
cassette or cd by her since. it's definitely one of the tracks
i still want; has she anything else that's half as good as this?

>also Eruption

- don't think i've heard their version.

>
>Leapy Lee - Her Comes The Rain

- ah, "pass." i've heard naught by him that i've ever wished
to hear a second time - nor, indeed, a first time, had i known
what i was about to suffer. and "Little Arrows" made the bbc
r1 (later r2) playlist here, too... *shudder*

- but thanks for reminding me of ann peebles.

- love, ppint.

"The Rain in Spain" (from the musical My Fair Lady, by Loewe and Lerner.)

Yellow River. That's a really pissy title.

[Jan Dean]

AND LET US NOT FORGET, DUDE, that Jan & Dean (actually Dean since Jan
was recuperating from his tragic auto accident) released an ENTIRE ALBUM
of rain-related songs in 1966, the title of which was SAVE FOR A RAINY DAY.
