This week's #ThursdayFiveList theme is #RainyDayMusic.

We don't actually have a rainy day in Helsinki today, but nevertheless, I was so overwhelmed by the number of great rain tunes that I ended up doing two lists, and still had to leave a lot of favorites out of them.

Here's the first one:

The Cascades: Rhythm Of The Rain (1963)

Irma Thomas: It's Raining (1962)

Pat Lundy: It's Rainin' Outside (1963)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drz1K0J5UHI

Johnnie Walker: Rain From The Skies (1964)

The Ronettes: Walking In The Rain (1964)

I listen to all the Cramps-influenced leopard-skin women's bands when the Best Off compilation albums come out. At the moment, they all sound the same and look the same too. The wheat has to be separated from the chaff first. Until then, I'll listen to the original.

Out on deck for a bit because it’s what I do. Well, before “The Best Years Of Our Lives” comes on at 8 on TCM.
