On rainy Monday mornings I always think of two songs: Stormy Monday (Allman Brothers’ version) and Rainy Days and Mondays by the Carpenters. I’ve discussed previously how the first 45 I ever bought was a rain song click here but here’s another favorite one I just thought about this past Saturday when Gary Rue played it at Bart’s party. Always liked it but hearing it live seemed to remind me what a great song it is/was from Creedence. (The Creedence video is ok but this version by Smokie has some better photo’s. Still like the Creedence original song best though.)
