Hidden Gems in Classic Rock Albums


Please share songs you love that get overlooked on classic albums that most consider among the best ever--for example, those that regularly appear on the Rolling Stone top 100 list. Last weekend I played "Hotel California" all the way through and was really digging "Try and Love Again". Can't get it out of my head. Oddly, a Randy Meisner tune with great bass guitar and unique bass drum work by Don Henley--pumping it twice rather than once not sure why. There is some really great stabbing guitar lines, awesome rhythm guitar licks and a nice lead guitar. As always, great harmony vocals to boot. A really great song that seems to fly under the radar because it is on an LP that has so many "hits" and really great songs.

Rolling stones "Fingerprint File" from the album " It's only Rock'n Roll"

Not a huge Stones fan, but WOW. This song knocked my socks off.

David Bowie: Station to Station.

Phil Manzanera: Diamond Head.  Eno on a rock album 1975

Zappa: numerous

Camel: Moonmadness and Mirage

"Runnin w the Pack" and "Rock Steady" and "Seagull" by Bad Company

"Not Fragile" and "Second Hand" and "Blue Collar" by Bachman Turner Overdrive

I was listening to some Great White yesterday and "Rock ME" and "House of Broken Love" were very well recorded.
