The Chester recording of “With the Wind and the Rain in Your Hair” was
reissued in Reader’s Digest The
Great Band Era 37 Top Bands Play 10 Years of Top Tunes (1936 to 1945)
(Record 10, side 1 track 5, mx. RRIM-9041). The 10-disc set was
produced by RCA Victor Custom and thus contains only sides recorded for
Victor or its affiliate Bluebird label. Two other attractive versions
of “With the Wind and the Rain in Your Hair” were recorded in 1940 by
Bob Crosby, with Marion Mann on vocal (Decca 3018), and Georgie Auld
and his Orchestra, with vocal by Kay Foster (Varsity 8212).
The song With The Wind and the Rain in Your Hair is also used to great
effect as a sort of running musical theme in the wonderful Preston Sturges
movie "The Lady Eve" (1941) with Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda.
