Suggest one obsure album we all should hear

Thanks again for opening my eyes to all this great stuff.
Shout out to Toy Matinee. Just listened again last night. Hard to find, but worth the hunt/expense. And DaDa, Wow I forgot just how good they were.
Took me this long to realize I misspelled Obscure in the original post!one more suggestion: Emitt Rhodes.

Townes Van Zandt, Live at the Old Quarter, Houston, Tx 1973.

Obscure? Maybe . . .  Certainly didn't sell like Abbey Roads or Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.

I have it on CD but expect vinyl would sound decent if you could find it. 

Kind of a spare arrangement, and as a vocalist he was a good songwriter, but he is in pretty decent voice here.  

Michael Stanley-“Friends & Legends”
Ozark Mountain Daredevils-“It’ll Shine When It Shines”
Rare Earth-“Get Ready”
William Topley-“Black River”
Pousette-Dart Band-“Amnesia”
Gram Parsons-“Grievous Angel”

dbp24 -- Not that Song Cycle is my favorite LP of all time, but when I lived in the San Fernando Valley in L.A., I'd regularly drive down Laurel Canyon to Vine street to go my barber, who alternately worked on Melrose Avenue and Beverly Blvd. Every once in a while I'd also drop in at a high-end stereo shop that was on one of those streets.  At any rate, the Van Dyck Parks record would be coursing through my brain the entire time. I'd put on my most nasal voice and intone, "Nyoral Nyanyon."

The Spring Standards - Yellow/Gold 
The best band not many know! Cheers,
Spencer
