A sort of sequel to I Often Dream of Trains, 1990's Eye is another stark, solo work that served as a creative shelter for Hitchcock at this time in his career. During this period he was recording a major-label rock album quite different from what he put forth on Eye. "I got to record Eye at a time when a lot of people were on my case," explains Hitchcock. "It had nobody else on it and no Alternative Chart expectations. It was luxury, a wide open meadow to kvetch in." The disc still rings true with fans and live crowds with the inclusion of favorites such as, "Queen Elvis" and "Glass Hotel."
