Recording information by ScottGOLD
For Everyone's a Winner - Atlantic Records Challenge - aren't wikis great.
"Rainy Night in Georgia" is a song written by Tony Joe White in 1962 and popularized by R&B vocalist Brook Benton in 1970. In 1969, after several years without a major hit, Benton had signed to a new record label, Cotillion Records (a subsidiary of Atlantic Records). Brought to the attention of producer Jerry Wexler, Benton recorded the song with producer Arif Mardin. Taken from his "come-back" album Brook Benton Today, the melancholy song became an instant hit. In the spring of 1970, the song had topped the Billboard Magazine Black Singles chart. It also reached #4 at the Pop Singles and #2 at the Adult Contemporary charts, respectively. It also was #498 on List of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
