1. A fine song.

I briefly considered covering this song "Angry Eyes". The soprano vocals were out of range, and the harmony is a must. I do a solo acoustic act and this would have been a nice fit song wise and era wise. The sax solo is fine and required as well. A tasty electric solo could fit but dam that sax is cool. I book shelved it until I have a full band with me. This was a fine couple of years for rock music and writing. They don't write em like that anymore.
Thanks for sharing this and putting it back on my radar.

I don't perform any longer, but have played a couple thousand gigs over my time.
I still play piano, guitar, or both every day.
I've done a couple open mic nights in the last few years & one wine bar gig. (I did it for free.)
Just me & a 12 string.
When I played a lot, I had a pretty complicated keyboard rig, so when I play now I want it to be as simple & uncomplicated as possible.
Here's a sampling. It's a home recording project of covers in my own style. I play & sing everything here.
