Rainy Day People was written and recorded by Gordon Lightfoot in 1975.
 
Ronnie recorded this lovely evenly Phrased version in memory of Gordon who passed away on May 1st 2023 of natural causes aged 84.
 
Thank you, Ronnie, for inspiring Ira and myself with this beautiful version.
 
Ira and I hope you enjoy this flowing sing along dance ;)
