Summary
In this episode Veronica and I discuss the fourth record I made for Warner Brothers, “Tiger in the Rain,” which was recorded in the Fall of 1978 and released early the following year. I worked with Producer/Arranger John Simon on this record and John wrote the most beautiful charts for the project. Circa 1978, sitting underneath the appletree, playing the 1926 Francisco Simplicio. Photo: Claudia Franks The title song was inspired by one of Henri Rousseau’s paintings called “Tropical Storm with a Tiger.” The National Gallery in London was kind enough to let us reproduce the painting on the album cover. I’d like to dedicate this episode to Dom and Sandie Cortese and the Pizzarelli Family. Tiger In The Rain album cover features "Tiger in a Tropcial Storm" an oil painting by Henri Rousseau.
