I think you're referring to the 1972 song "In The Rain" by the Dramatics.It's on that R&B collection.But no,this song has nothing to do with the Oran "Juice" Jones track.



Dont' you think the way they say "In the rain" sounds a little like how Oran says it in his song? I'm sure he was aware of it and could've been "influenced" or "inspired" by it.



in a word....NO..

Well, you're the one who also can't see any similarity between "The Rain" and "Bob George", so I guess I'll see what others have to say smile But thanks.

Yeah,it's possible that he was influenced by the Dramatics song.I say this because he was obviously a big fan of R&B vocal groups from the past (his album includes a remake of the Moments hit "Not On The Outside").But I really don't see much similarity between the two songs.
