About Me:
 
In 1960, the Silver Strands were a group of United States Navy personnel serving on the USS Jason based in San Diego, California, who were led by guitarist Len Green and played local shows. They recruited John Gummoe, and left the Navy to become The Thundernotes. Green had the idea of performing rock and roll music with an exotic twist, along the lines of Arthur Lyman and Martin Denny. To help capture this new sound, they introduced an electric piano, and Gummoe became the group's lead singer. However, their first release was an instrumental on Bob Keene's Del Fi Records label called "Thunder Rhythm". It was not a hit and Green left the group eventually becoming a successful songwriter in Nashville, Tennessee.

At this point, the group's membership consolidated as John Gummoe (born John Claude Gummoe, 2 August 1938, Cleveland, Ohio) (lead vocals), Eddy Snyder (guitar), David Szabo (keyboardist), Dave Stevens (bassist), and Dave Wilson (drummer).

The group then started to get more interested in vocal harmony, influenced by the Beach Boys. They recorded demos which ended up with Barry De Vorzon at Valiant Records, a subsidiary of Warner Brothers, who signed them up and also changed their name to The Cascades -- supposedly inspired by a nearby box of detergent. Their first release, "There's A Reason", became a small regional hit, and, in summer 1962, they went to Gold Star Studios in Los Angeles and recorded a song which Gummoe had written in his Navy days while on watch during a thunderstorm. The musicians on the recording included the "Wrecking Crew" - Hal Blaine on drums, Carol Kaye on bass and Glen Campbell on guitar - and it was arranged by Perry Botkin. "Rhythm of the Rain" was issued in November 1962. It rose to #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in early 1963, and became a major hit in over 80 countries.

Thanks KSA for all your support. I am going to The Philippines in October, but right now there is a phony group getting ready to appear there and thought I'd ask you to spread the word. This phony group had nothing to do with ANY of our hits and I hope the Filipino people will not allow themselves to be fooled. They are coming the end of this month, but are NOT original Cascades. Thanks, John Claude Gummoe, lead singer of The Cascades and composer of "Rhythm of the Rain"
