 The album also features Furay's rendition of the Parsons composition "Brass Buttons", which Furay said that Parsons had originally taught him back in Greenwich Village.In fact, the song debuted on "Crazy Eyes", as Parsons' own recording, on his album "Grievous Angel", was not released until January 1974, four months later -- and also four months after Parsons' death, as he died four days after "Crazy Eyes"' release.Although Furay had been Poco's most prolific songwriter, only one other new Furay song, "Let's Dance Tonight", appeared on "Crazy Eyes", perhaps because Furay was largely reserving his songwriting potential for the Souther–Hillman–Furay Band, or perhaps because so many other, unreleased songs were recorded for the album (including two other new Furay songs, "Believe Me" (which later became one of Furay's best-known songs in its recording by the Souther-Hillman-Furay Band) and "Nothin's Still The Same")..
