Last week in my blog entry about The Suspects, an early band featuring Kendra Smith, I mentioned a later project of Smith’s called Rainy Day. This one-off band also featured David Roback and Susanna Hoffs and they released one LP in 1984 on Rough Trade Records. The self-titled album featured covers of songs from Buffalo Springfield, The Velvet Underground, The Beach Boys and Bob Dylan, among others.
Included here for you today are three songs: ”Flying on the Ground is Wrong” (featuring Kendra Smith on vocals, David Roback on guitar and Susanna Hoffs on backing vocals), “I’ll Be Your Mirror” (featuring Susanna Hoffs on vocals and guitar, David Roback on guitar, bass and tambourine and Kendra Smith on backing vocals) and “I’ll Keep it With Mine” (featuring Susanna Hoffs on lead vocals, David Roback on guitar and tambourine and Will Glenn on violin).
