Slade - Crying In The Rain / Wild Nights + Interview 1989

1989's Blessings In Disguise single Crying In The Rain / Wild Nights featured Noddy Holder and Dave Hill from Slade. Blessings In Disguise was a project of Dave Hill.

From Wikipedia:

In 1989 Dave Hill and Noddy Holder did a remake of The Everly Brother's hit song "Crying in the Rain." They released Crying In The Rain as a 7" single and it was backed with "Wild Nites", written by Dave and Bill Hunt, on the Mooncrest label under the group name, Blessings In Disguise, both songs with Noddy on lead vocals. In 1991, Hill followed it up with a further Blessings In Disguise single "Chance To Be" / "You're The Reason I'm Strong" - which did not feature Holder at all. "Chance To Be" was a charity record composed by Daniel Somers & Colin Baines to raise money for Queen Alexandra College for the Blind in Birmingham.

@GJBSLADE Great stuff, thanks very much. Surprised that the video wasn't shown for the singles' Xmas release in 1989, may have attracted a few more sales.

Brings a tear to the eye........come back Don, Dave, Jim and Nod. Your country needs you.
