Lost Gem: "As Far As The Eye Can See" - Nutz (1974)
"Pools of light
surround the night.
Chased away by dawns new day.
~ Nutz ~
Hailing from Liverpool, England, Nutz was a talented four member band that deserved better than the RnR Gods allowed.
Serving up helpings of driving rock...Nutz should have taken off. But their debut album didn't drop when planned...and left the band touring with acts like Queen and Black Sabbath with nothing to promote.
Led by a refreshingly creative guitarist...Mick Devonport...and the charismatic singer Dave Lloyd...Nutz was boogie with a dose of prog-Zep. And had a distinctive sound many bands later would find success with. It was tasty rock made for FM.
Lost Gem:--> "As Far As The Eye Can See"...is filled with catchy guitar spank from Davenport meant to crank. And uncomplicated Lloyd vocals that joyously delivers the time over a solid drum/bass rhythm train. This band was talented....but fickle blows the winds of fortune.
Have you heard this one?
Pools of light surround the night.
Chased away by dawns new day.
As far as the eye can see
Your love burns a hole into me.
As far as the eye can see
Our two hearts are destiny.
Good times I've been down.
Falling 'neath the ground.
Soon I'll have my say
with you.
Arms in sand sweet and grand.
Move in rhyme and since of time.
As far as the eye can see
Your love burns a hole into me.
As far as the eye can see
Our two hearts are destiny.
Good stuff!
