Toy Caldwell wrote "Can't You See", and the Marshall Tucker Band put it on their self-titled debut in 1973 as the album's first single on Capricorn. It opens and closes with Jerry Eubanks' flute, a lonesome sound that drifts across the song like mist over a pond, and in between the band slowly builds up a head of steam. Record World heard that at the time, praising a rhythm that keeps on climbing.
The band kept it close for years afterward. A live take, recorded in Milwaukee in July 1974, closed out Searchin' for a Rainbow in 1975, and Cash Box singled out the band's trademark blend of guitar and flute.
