Then I shouldn't mention Robert Palmer's "Looking for Clues".Originally Posted by KittyDuran
GAC - I wouldn't call some of those songs "obscure" except maybe Ten Years After's and Uriah Heep's singles. The rest are by well known groups. To me, obscure usually means both the song and the artist.
I meant to, but I never use "dude" in my real life vernacular, so I can't start using it in cyberspace.listened to Hurdy Gurdy Man lately? Great.
Wheels, you should've added a "dude" after, "It's totally Dokken"
(Sorry. I lived in LA for a minute)
In fact, I talk just like I write, 'cept LOUDER and faster.

I have it too. The REM/Athens, GA sound permeates the whole record, which is a little disappointing. I was never that into REM, except for "Nightswimming."that is a GREAT song. I actually baught the CD. The rest is just ok.

"We want to be the band to dance to when the bomb drops." - Simon Le Bon of Duran Duran
You may be right. But then that would disqualify alot of the other music/bands listed on here. And from reading over this thread, maybe some of them are in obscurity for a reason.GAC - I wouldn't call some of those songs "obscure" except maybe Ten Years After's and Uriah Heep's singles.

We would jam in Joe's Garage
We didn't have no dope or LSD
But a couple 'o quarts o' beer
Would make it so the intonation
Would not offend your ear...
Stick to your guns.
I'm not really sure what criteria to apply to the term obscure - but here is my submission:
The excellent London (Romford) outfit Underworld released an early single "rez" on the Boy's Own Label - sold out 15,000 vinyl copies. It was played at thousands of parties for years and was only made available on CD in an edited version as a B-side. until a 2003 Underworld compilation. This is one of the best tracks of the last 15 years and you could not find it for a long time unless you bought a deleted UK or Japanese EP.
