"#StormyWeather" is a 1933 #torchSong written by #HaroldArlen and #TedKoehler. #EthelWaters first sang it at #TheCottonClub night club in #Harlem in 1933 and recorded it that year, and in the same year it was sung in London by #ElisabethWelch and recorded by #FrancesLangford. Also in 1933, for the first time the entire floor revue from Harlem's Cotton Club went on tour, playing theatres in principal cities.

It's the first #TunesOnTuesday of #FAWM, February Album-Writing Month, a global community of songwriters. It's a chance to write music to other peoples' lyrics, as in this example "Bullet In The Night," which turned into a torch song about love and betrayal.

More Vinyl Friday classic vinyl. Up now, 1984's Wish Thing from #TorchSong. For those not familiar with Torch Song they were a William Orbit's mid-80s band. At the time, it was a step forward in club music. You can hear the elements of future EDM, especially in the opening 6:47 minute track "Don't Look Now". Samples, gated drums, drop the bass, it's all here but in 1984!
@ricmac Two of my fave ‘80s synthy albums: Sex by #Telex and Wish Thing by #TorchSong.
Even now, I listen to the production / lyrics on those albums and I’m flummoxed. Just glorious!
