    You should react to "Summer Rain".
    About 20 years ago, I saw Johnny Rivers at an outdoor show in Boston. It rained during the show driving many people away.
    I stayed and met Rivers after the show and told him that was quite a summer rain. He said, "Ha Ha!!!"

I caught it over 50 years ago and hope they never find a cure. Great lyrics and singing, but the piano makes the song of course. Give Secret Agent Man a listen when you get back around to Johnny.

There is a British piano teacher, Terry Miles, who posts videos on RUclips of his search for pianos in pubs. With his style he often brings a smile to the faces of the bystanders. He must have caught the boogie woogie flu too.

    Give Johnnys tune Summer Rain a reaction next time you do him. It’s my personal favorite.

    This type of music goes back to the days when there was colored music and white music. Many early rockers started recording colored music and then it all started, rock and roll took over the radios. We can thank Johnny and Elvis for bringing this music into our lives.
