Window of my eyes
De single "Window of my eyes" komt van de lp ,,Thrippin thru a midnight Blues,,. Het stond tien weken in de Nederlandse Top 40 met als hoogste notering de tiende plaats. "Window of my eyes" zou het meest succesvolle nummer van Cuby and the Blizzards worden, vertegenwoordigd in alle muziekoverzichten van de laatste 40 jaar. Harry Muskee vindt het nog steeds z’n mooiste nummer. Uit liefdesverdriet ontstaan in de boerderij in Grollo, met een monumentale gitaarsolo van Eelco Gelling op z’n Gibson Les Paul.
