The Searchers : Hearts In Her Eyes
In October of 1979, sixteen years after "Sweets For My Sweet", The Searchers released "Hearts In Her Eyes", a dandy confection of its own. The song was a gift from power-pop masters The Records, whose "Starry Eyes" was climbing the American charts to #56 the very same month. Impossible to understand why this one didn't chart as well. I believe the same Sire Records album contained their cover of Mickey Jupp's "Switchboard Susan". The next one, Love's Melodies, would feature a cover of Big Star's "September Gurls". Sadly, they only got to make two records before Sire bounced the band.
