If not for Nazz leader Todd Rundgren's subsequent commercially successful solo career, the Nazz might be a band beloved strictly by '60s pop obsessives. Without Rundgren's classic pop voice and incipient songwriting smarts, the Nazz may have been just another also-ran on the NUGGETS anthology. However, while a few of the tracks on this 1968 debut are so-so R&B-based workouts too poppy to be "heavy," most of these songs are terrific. The justifiably legendary single "Open My Eyes" is a '60s pop classic, and the early version of "Hello It's Me," later a huge hit single from Rundgren's solo breakthrough SOMETHING/ANYTHING?, shows that Rundgren's sense of songcraft was already in full flower. Ultimately, this is a paisley pop delight.
