Your favorite obscure song


What song in your music inventory do you consider a barely known hidden gem? Like a well kept secret know only to a few that you can listen to over and again.

For me it's 'Roads to Moscow' from Al Stewart's 'Past Present and Future' album.

The music, the lyrics, the story it tells is- to be just slightly hyperbolic- brilliant.

Check it out, especially if your a WW2 history buff.

Thank you for your attention on this matter.😁

Jothan Callins- private label - was an educator in Birmingham, Alabama, studied under Nathan Davis- this is a one and done, pretty rare but was recently reissued. I cannot speak to the reissue, the OG is good sounding:

Late night chill. 

I own 22 albums  of Stephan Micus 

He play all instruments in all of his albums, makes all the voices...

He composed  songs  in a language he created himself ...

This is the first song of the "garden of mirrors" : "earth"

A genius rooted in the earth in the age of uprooting  ...

He will not be on any pop chart or any "hit parade" ...

Dance of the Red Corpuscles

on the 1970 soundtrack album Music From The Body (film title: The Body)

by Roger Waters and Ron Geesin

Boz Scaggs Look What You’ve Done To Me and Loan Me A Dime on the album Greatest Hits Live, Grey Cat Records, streaming on Qobuz.  The first a ballad, the second a R&B masterpiece of improvisation.  On the last few bars of Look listen to the falsetto exchange and atmospheric range of Barbara Wilson and Ms. Monet … on  Loan listen to Scaggs’ R&B stylings at his best, backed up by the improvisational runs by his band.
