We’ve previously discussed Argentinean composer Bebu Silvetti and his breakthrough album Spring Rain. This song, taken from his 1976 debut album, World Without Words, came a year before his breakthrough, was an album somewhat dedicated to the weather, and featured a version of “Spring Rain,” which would shortly become his signature hit.
