If the moniker of this band rings familiar, I wouldn't be surprised in the least given that there are/were many
Black-eyed Susans floating around in the annals of rock and rock, some of which have gone by alternate spellings of course. Unfortunately I wasn't able to conjure up anything relevant to this quartet, who may have been denizens of Connecticut. For me, the album jacket gave this one away - clangy, collegiate college rock in league with so many 415 Records bands. There are a plethora of additional trace elements - Winter Hours, the Pedaljets, Carnival Season, and when the Susans apply a little grit, even Drivin 'N Cryin come faintly to mind. Wouldn't call this one a game changer, per se, but "Knowing When to Leave is an Art," "Look Outside" and "Sister Mary's Tears" rank up there with the primo accomplishments of the aforementioned. Can anyone shed some more light on this one? Enjoy (or not).
