I recommended playing "Riders On the Storm", followed by "Riding the Storm Out"...I've since decided "texas Flood" is a good follow-up....you must play then repeatedly and if you need further assistance, refer to the list of rain songs we posted a page or so back

Tuesday: yepper, I think you're right- I think he was based in Wisconsin, but I could be wrong about that- Chicago is about an hour south of the Wisconsin border...
