Releasing a version of 'Listening to the Rain' has been a long-awaited dream of Bob Minner's that he’s finally been able to see through with this latest project.
“My dad was an Osborne Brothers fan, and I remember their records being in the house when I was around six or seven,” Bob tells us. “And for a number of years, I had always heard this song in my head as a slowed-down ballad due to the nature of the lyric, but I never had a project that treatment would fit within. Until now.”
“When I signed with Billy Blue as an artist, I knew I had to have this song on the record, and I wanted to expand it into the realm of a duet,” he continues. “And coming off the success of my co-write with John Meador on Fall In Tennessee, I knew I wanted John’s incredible voice on the cut. I asked John who he’d like to sing it with, and without hesitation he said, ‘Rhonda (Vincent),’ and I couldn’t have agreed more. So, I approached Rhonda with the idea, and she was gracious enough to agree to be a part of it.”
“We met at Rhonda’s house to go through keys and arrangement, and as soon as they started singing together, the hair stood up on my arms and I knew this was going to be something special.”
John and Rhonda’s voices color the song with even deeper shades of lonely, and draw out the heartbreak that always lived in these lyrics. John’s smooth tone and the softer side of Rhonda’s powerful voice blend and twine together beautifully, perfectly spiraling into the duet harmonies that transport the listeners into the story, and even into the melody itself.
Another special guest that Minner featured on this recording is Ronnie Reno, who played on the first cut of Listening to the Rain when the Osbornes took it into the studio.
“I played on the original recording of Listening To The Rain with Bobby and Sonny in 1970,” Ronnie says. “I love the new approach to this song, and it’s wonderfully done. The vocals are outstanding. Bob’s production is outstanding. It’s in the pocket, and it’s in time with your heart. I know Bobby and Sonny would be very proud of this recording.”

I'm looking out the window at the rain
The night is driving me crazy
It's just as cold inside
All the warm is gone without my baby
In my mind something stirs
And my lips start crying out your name
While I'm sitting here and wondering where you are
And listening to the rain
The beating on the window can't compare with the beating that I'm taking
The window's gonna hold, but look at me
I'm already breaking
Memories tugging at my heart
And it's gonna crack beneath the strain
While I'm sitting here wondering where you are
And listening the rain
Solo
My mind has got you pictured
In the arms and in the heart of some new love
I've tried to black it out
But all my mind can see is them and you, loveKnowing that it might be true
That's the thing that's causing all the pain
While I'm sitting here wondering where you areAnd listening to the rain
While I'm sitting here wondering where you areAnd listening to the rain
