Saturday is a 1987 album by The Reivers. It was their major label debut on Capitol Records. Notable tracks include “In Your Eyes,” which is the only song for which the band produced an official video (directed by Kevin Kerslake);[1] and "Wait for Time," which Rolling Stone's Michael Azerrad described as "an amazing moment on an amazing album."[2] Los Angeles Times critic Don Waller called "In Your Eyes" "one of the most disarmingly charming, guitars-chime-like-freedom-flashing non-hit singles of 1988 or any other year."[3] The packaging of the 2002 Dualtone Vintage CD reissue includes a brief essay about the band by TV writer-producer Rob Thomas, who had himself been a musician in Austin. However, the CD reissue packaging does not include the lyrics that had been included with the original Capitol release.
The last three tracks are "bonus" songs on the 2002 Dualtone re-release. They were not included on the original album.
