"It's Raining" is a soul/ R&B ballad, written by Allen Toussaint under the name "Naomi Neville". It was first recorded in November 1961 by Irma Thomas, and produced by Allen Toussaint. The song has emotional ties to Louisiana, having been written and sung by people born in that state, being released on a New Orleans–based record label and enduring in the Deep South as a regional classic. "It's Raining", alongside "Ruler of My Heart" and "I Done Got Over It", remain some of Thomas' best–known recordings. History Initially Thomas recorded for Ron Records but, in 1961, she left for Minit Records, feeling that her original label did not pay her due royalties. This move paired her with Allen Toussaint, who both wrote and produced most of her work with Minit. As well as "It's Raining", Thomas recorded other notable tracks such as " Time Is on My Side" and "Ruler of My Heart." The name "Naomi Neville" was Toussaint's mother's name, which he used on many of his early compositions. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
