"Any Way the Wind Blows" is the second and final studio album to be released by American country music duo Brother Phelps before Doug Phelps re-joined country rock band The Kentucky Headhunters, of which he and Ricky Lee Phelps were both members previous to Brother Phelps' inception. This album produced singles in its title track and "Not So Different After All". The track "Ragtop" was previously cut by The Kentucky Headhunters on their 1989 debut album "Pickin' on Nashville", while "Cinderella" is a cover of a song originally released by the rock band Firefall. "Down into Muddy Water" would later be recorded by Shelly Fairchild on her 2004 debut album "Ride".
