The Kal-Q-Lated Risk - Looking Through The Eyes Of A Beautiful Girl
1971



This is the fourth single from The Kal-Q-Lated Risk. They were formed in Featherston in 1967. Original singer Carl Evenson left early on to front The Fourmyula. He was replaced by Ian Taylor. Ian Taylor went on to become the host of Spot On, a children's program on TVNZ. Later he founded the Sports Emmy award winning television production company Taylormade Media. In 2012 he was appointed a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit. Looking Through The Eyes Of A Beautiful Girl was The Kal-Q-Lated Risk's most commercially successful single. It reached number 14 in the New Zealand Top Twenty. A year after its release the band shorted their name to The Risk. They called it a day in 1974.
