Let the Four Winds Blow is the second album by Tenpole Tudor and the follow-up to Eddie, Old Bob, Dick and Gary. Despite featuring the minor hit "Throwing My Baby Out With the Bath Water" (#49 in November 1981[2]) the album and the follow-up single (the title track "Let the Four Winds Blow") both failed to chart. It would be 27 years before the next album, Made it this Far would be released.
