As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

#174 Stormy Weather – The Spaniels (1958)

There may be no sun up in the sky, and you may have been dumped, but no one else ever made a storm sound like so much fun.
 
Off the topic, but given that doo-wop produced so many “bird groups” (Orioles, Flamingos, Ravens, Wrens, Swallows, Penguins), why is it that only one (to be best of my knowledge) was named after a breed of dog?
