The Third Eye (South Africa)
Review by Roger Browning:
Time and fortune have not been kind to Third Eye. Back in the late 1960s they were one of the top acts in South Africa, recording three powerful albums that easily matched the creative output of their now better-known contemporaries. Four decades on, though, and they are the also-rans in the contest to name the nation’s rock royalty. Search the web for information on the band and all that pops up is sketchy information on their recording output and brief notes on recent revival concerts. Search for the recordings of Third Eye and you would – until this timely reissue – have been hard pressed to find anything other than the hugely expensive original vinyl pressings. Although badly reproduced CDs of their releases – Awakening, Searching and Brother – have been available on bootleg labels, the band have been poorly represented in digital form. Contrast this with the plethora of bootlegs and, more recently, official releases on offer from other South African artists of that era. More...

Re: The Third Eye (South Africa)
С нового года у меня руки чесались на этот Глаз.
Первый только что послушала, симпатишно и все время неожиданно. Особенно удивилась когда зазвучала Valley of sadness, в начале даже показалось, что сам Руссос. Первый раз слышу, чтобы на него вокал был так похож. Местами конечно несколько больше типичного брассу чем я люблю, но не критично И раз музыка дальше будет эволюционировать, то и остальные альбомы утащу постепенно
Большое мерсибо!!!
