(82 posts)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.

(70,747 posts)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.
