EYES OF BLUE - Crossroads Of Time +3 - SWE Flawed Gems Remastered Expanded - LISTEN - VERY RARE

At last as a single CD and with excellent sound! Eyes Of Blue were protégés of Graham Bond (who lent them two tracks for the debut) and at the same time a cult, though still heavily underrated, British band rooted in the style of the late 60s, combining elements of late psychedelia and early prog rock (including references to classical music) - something in the style of a more 'grubby' Procol Harum of the first two albums. Hammonds, mellotron, overdriven guitars and the great vocal of Gary Pickford-Hopkins - later known from Wild Turkey. This is a real treat for lovers of playing in the vein of Crazy World Of Arthur Brown, Velvett Fogg, Pesky Gee, the Man debut, the 'second' by Plastic Penny, and so on. In addition three tracks from earlier, rhythm'n'blues singles in the style of The Artwoods and The Action are included. A MUST! (JL)
