"Riders on the Storm" is a popular 1971 song by The Doors from the L.A. Woman album. Reaching number 14 on the charts, it still receives considerable radio air play, especially when the weather forecast calls for rain or a storm. The song was inspired by the song "Ghostriders in the Sky." It incorporates thunder and rain sound effects and Ray Manzarek's Fender Rhodes electric piano playing which emulated the sound of rain. Riders on the Storm is also the title of an autobiographical book written by Doors member John Densmore, and the name of Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger's Doors tribute band (formerly called D21C and Doors of the 21st Century before Densmore's lawsuit forced them to drop the famous name). "Riders on the Storm" is loosely based on the notorious spree killer Billy Cook who posed as a hitchhiker and murdered an entire family. The song was recorded at the Doors Workshop in December 1970 with the assistance of Bruce Botnick, their longtime engineer who was coproducing the recording sessions. Jim Morrison recorded his main vocals and then whispered the lyrics over them to create the haunting effect.

Well, there's "Riders on the Storm", from the Doors, sang by Jim Morrison. I'm guessing he wrote it as well.
