Buddy Guy’s “Feels Like Rain” Remains a Blues Classic
Hello, I’m Gail Nobles, & You’re listening to Podcast and Blues.
In the world of blues music, few songs resonate as deeply as Buddy Guy's "Feels Like Rain." Originally released as part of his Grammy-winning album in 1993, this track has become one of Guy's most iconic songs.
But the journey of "Feels Like Rain" started before Buddy Guy made it famous. The song was originally written and performed by John Hiatt in 1988. Hiatt's version laid the groundwork, but it was Buddy Guy's heartfelt rendition that truly brought the song to life, blending soulful guitar riffs with powerful vocals.
Listeners have embraced Guy's version, making it a staple in modern blues music. With its evocative lyrics and emotional depth, "Feels Like Rain" captures the feeling of longing, making it relatable for many fans.
Now, decades later, Buddy Guy's "Feels Like Rain" continues to be celebrated, showcasing the timeless power of blues music and the incredible talent of Buddy Guy. Whether you're a lifelong blues lover or a new listener, this track is a must-hear that highlights the rich history of the genre.
