“I Wish It Would Rain Down” by Phil Collins. Intro solo played on a Fender Stratocaster using my thumb, with neck pick up selected, volume at 7 and tone on 3. NUX Amp set to ‘super lead’ with treble on 7, bass and mid on 5. Original played by Eric Clapton? Not sure who he is?
“I Wish It Would Rain Down” is a song by Phil Collins from his 1989 album ‘But Seriously’, featuring lead guitar by Eric Clapton. The power ballad was a massive success in early 1990, peaking at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States and No. 1 on the RPM Top 100 in Canada. It also reached No. 7 on the UK Singles Chart. Collins felt that it was as close as he had ever got, at the time, to writing a blues song.
