The Glass Opening - Does It Really Matter? (1968)

[SpiffySpider]

Why does it feel like I heard this song before...?

[diddypopdiddy]

any idea what any of the verse lyrics are? great song

[neffit]

It looks like they may have had another 45! There's a record on ebay I'm On Your Prey b/w My Heart is Heavy by The Glass Opening and it's buy it now only $1600...

[freqazoidiak]

Great track, I"m not sure if it's the audio quality/compression but the lead sounds like he's singing with Marbles in his mouth! Is THAT the glass opening??

[pictureisup1]

Sounds like a deep purple guitar solo

[doctordel]

I know 2 People that are not getting invited to the love in. You other 52 see ya there.

ボーカルの「♪うまヘタ」具合が確かに鈴木ヒロミツさんにそっく­り！そのため余計にグループサウンズ調にｷｺえる！

[shimashima8801]

日本のポップスで言うところのグループサウンズに良く似ているの­でビックリ！メロディーラインは「哀愁の短調進行」で、グループ­サウンズのモップスを連想させる。

Blistering single...never knew it came out in Canada as well. Plexium was one weird organization, Keith Dangerfield, this monster and the theme from Kelly's Heroes! An label anthology is in order, one feels...somewhere there's a story to be told.I'm informed The Glass Opening are connected in some way to Rupert's People, dunno how true though...Whatever, much gratitude for the post werewolf...

[FIERO871]

Does it really matter that this song sucks?

[ajerseykid]

nice track, but it does sound like the singer's got balls in his mouth... just sayin'.

[buysometrysome]

Can you post the A-side? This sounds so good. Thanks for sharing.

[joealanouf]

the singer kind of sounds like long john buldrey

[dingleberrycherry]

this is pretty great, anyone know any more unique sounding artists like this from this time-frame , genre-range?

[blabblab1212]

Sounds like Marilyn Manson might have "borrowed" LOL the intro to this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds alot like "The Beautiful People intro.

[freqazoidiak]

@blabblab1212 Many songs have that gallop beat on their intro. Just listen to "i'm a man" by the Yardbirds

[Bellfire05]

I just saw the Bee Gees as one of your favorites lol. I guess men with deep voices can be a little intimidating to some lol.

[Bellfire05]

I'm probably wrong but that sure sounds like Terry Kath!

[superjules]

Holy Shit!!

[seattlepilot69]

this is the B side, it was their only 45 i believe.

[Bellfire05]

It's got soul. I love garage stuff.

[ARClarke101]

did these make an album?

[rocknrollwerewolf]

Not that I'm aware of. This is the B-side to their single "Silver Bells and Cockle Shells" and as far as I know, this lone 45 is the only thing The Glass Opening ever released.

[yesterman69]

a very gem, excitante!!!

[brnleague99]

1968 was such a GOOD year for music.

[Umskiddy]

Sounds like Long John Baldry on vocals...

[Svensjair]

INTENSE!!!!

[bucksheespins]

Real powerful sound!
