"Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House" LP Question

I just want to explain this for everyone who has been listening to this LP or iTunes, I just got a question. Did you know that on side 2 of the record, there was a sound effect which is on track 2 which is the "Thunder, Lightning & Rain", did they used this same sound effect in the intro to the classic 1972 R&B soul hit, "In the Rain" by the Dramatics"? It does sounded familiar. It starts off with a series of thunderclaps from another non-Disney sound effects library and the rain which was later added to the intro at the very beginning of the song except the middle and ending where you can able to hear this sound effect of the rain which was originally used from the Disneyland LP "The Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House". I want you to hear this song by the Dramatics called "In the Rain". If you listen very carefully at the very beginning you might you hear the sound of the rain which was borrowed from a Disneyland album. It was on the Volt label back in 1972, and it was not a Disney song, but you might hear some elements. Enjoy!

Thanks for clearing that up so simply.

You're welcome, I'm glad Randy Thornton, "makeminemusic" and "Horizons" are listening to this song. I can give credit to Randy Thornton who did put out the old Disneyland material along with this one called "Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House" on iTunes, this track was later sampled into the soulful ballad "In the Rain" by the Dramatics, but Randy never heard this one since it was played during that intro.

You can also hear some of the screams and groans in the Mickey Mouse short, "Lonesome Ghosts," and the dog barks in the fox hunt sequence of "Mary Poppins."

I also make a "tribute" paraphrase reference to the opening of this article tease from an early "Backstage Pass" on disneyworld.com.:
