It's Covers Week (Part III): Special Visine of the Gods Edition

From 2016, please enjoy friends of PowerPop The Steve Deaton Three and an absolutely swell cover of the 1968 Todd Rundgren/Nazz classic "Open My Eyes."



That song, of course, is one of those Ground Zero power pop events, and as such there is no definitive cover. But I think this one is really cool.

I should also add that the splendid album the SD3's version appears on can be be purchased at Amazon, iTunes, etc.

BTW, for you vinyl cultists, there's now an LP edition; you can find an order link for it over HERE.
