    I played with Eddie Preston Snyder for about two years and we toured as the Cascade’s. Eddie was the original guitar player and owned the name. The musicians on the song were members of the Wrecking Crew. Carol Kaye, Hal Blain and Glen Campbell. Eddie and his wife Jackie passed away over ten years ago from cancer. All but John the lead singer have passed away. John Gummoe wrote and sang the song. He came up with the chorus by just noodling using only the five black keys on a piano. It was the ninth most played song on the radio and tv in the 20th century. Number one was you lost this loving feeling.

    "Rhythm of the Rain" was an international hit in 1962. The Cascades have quite a list of popular songs: "The Last Leaf", "Shy Girl", and "First Love Never Dies" are just a few. Great Group that is largely forgotten today.

    I also remember this from my childhood. Listening to this on a 45 rpm vinyl, staring out of a window as the rain splashes against the glass and cascades down in miniature rivers. Feeling the security and warmth of being indoors with my face inches from a storm on the other side of the glass. Loving the strange melancholy and thinking about a girl at school I fancied.

    Harri, I remember sitting with my boyfriend, Mike, in his 1957 black & silver Chevy, in the rain, talking about how much I loved this song! This would have been in late 1967 or early 1968. He was the one who told me he had heard somewhere that girls were 17% more affectionate when it was raining! That is a statistic that I remember to this date and tell people all the time! Thanks for the memory! Love your channel ❤!

    @HRConsultant_Jeff 3 года назад +7

    The band was on ship with my father (US Navy and his name was Harry) and when this song hit they became famous very fast. We had them to our house for Thanksgiving that year and my sister, who was about 14 at the time was very popular with her high school friends when she showed them her autographed album. Years later I would catch up with Dave (drummer) who was still fronting the band. Johnny and others had moved on. Dave and I would have a couple beers when they played at the local Red Coat Inn. Really great guys. Lost track of them but I think John Gummoe (writer and lead singer) is in Washington.

    These songs are what shaped the music we have now. Classics. Everly Brothers, Righteous Brothers, and so many others. Unlike so freaking many, I really didn't care for Elvis as much. Around that time, my older bro went towards The Ventures, Beach Boys, Jan & Dean et al. (Et Al= "and others" in Latin).

    I just got a hell of a shock too. I always thought this was sung by some solo singer from the early sixties, like Bobby Vinton or someone like that. Now I find out, after almost 60 years, that it was a group I'd never heard of !!! I even had to go to Wikipedia to make sure, but it doesnt mention anybody else. Unbelieavable ! I always loved this song, especially because of the thundern and rain, but also the melody is so beautiful and the song is so romantic, which really gets to you when youre a teenage boy. Although at the time Id never lost anyone, I was caught by the mystery and sadness (from songs) of what losing a love would be like. I was just as shocked as you were when I heard this. That beautiful bell sound was made by a "celesta", which looks like a small piano and has been around since 1880. You can see them leaning on the small keyboard in the picture . It's a small world, like the saying goes ; the real distance comes only from time . The singer has a beautiful voice and it's so nice how he enunciates the words .

    Yes an incredibly beautiful song. I don't want to say the cliche "They don't write songs like that anymore," but, they don't write songs like that anymore ... In Thailand they celebrate the beginning of the Rainy season each year. A huge Festival! If you haven't been then go! I used this song in in my "Celebrating Thai Water Festival" RUclips video a few months ago. An amazing song and an amazing festival! Thanks for also sharing this song and making it live again!

    Isn't it amazing how music can take us back to our youth and particular memories and help us relive them over and over. Magical.

    Harri, this song is such an earworm that it goes through my head at least once a month, and maybe even more. Different sections of the song at different times.
    Being a humorist, I can't help myself, and have tweaked a lyric to say: "The only girl I care about has Gonoree..." I may be going senile. Entering the bright autumn of senescence. Time will tell.
    My only gripe here is that I always pictured them being far more groovy-looking. More like you than, say, Mike Pence. From the tinkling beginning to the pitter patter at the end, your reaction, as always, is as golden as the songs.

    The Cascades scored a top ten hit with "Rhythm of the Rain" in 1963 and it must have gotten some radio play ten years later when I was around the same age you were when you remember hearing it as a kid because I remember hearing it as a kid too! Pop music commonly used rain metaphors back then -- Buddy Holly "Raining In My Heart", Dee Clark "Raindrops", The Ronettes "Walking In the Rain", and The Everly Brothers "Crying In The Rain". That last one is doubly notable today given the news of Don Everly's passing.

    Harri, I'm thrilled that you love songs from this era. Your musical tastes are as broad as mine as far as decades, eras, and genre's. I think you might be familiar eith or enjoy covering BJ Thomas who passed recently. Very unique singing style. Check it out...

    You must listen to the Everly Brothers--they are amazing duo from this same era.

    I first heard this number on a small "low fidelity" radio in my youth, and it quickly became one of my favorites. I might have owned the 45 single, but I'm not really sure. I did have quite a few 45 single records back then .... so long ago .....
