Mod-A-Day: Eight Miles High
Eight Miles High, or is it 8 Miles High? I guess it doesn't matter, since these days they go by The Dukes Jetty. Regardless it is all pretty good, sixties inspired rock and roll. This particular track, See My Way, was from 8 MIles High and had both a strong sixties vibe, and a very modern Britpop sort of sound complete with orchestrated strings, cool melodies, and vocal harmonies. It's a pretty good song all told. A nice precursor to what the Dukes have going on these days, which is also pretty good.
