Underated bands that shouldn't be...........


The one that didn't get the attention that they should have and that always pissed me off, Grand Funk. Yes, they had quite the notoriaty, but never broke the barriers neccessary to become the GREAT band they were. In fact, my favorite lp by them never had any radio hits to speak of. "Phoenix". I own (2) copies. Just in case.

Lets hear yours.

Tesla-The combination of musical and songwriting skills were unmatched by any hard rock/metal band from the mid 80's-early 90's. Song and Emotion ranks as one of the best "forgotten" all time great rock songs. Tesla wasn't just limited to a few great songs. The Great Radio Controvesy ranks as one of the best all time rock recordings with awesome songs from start to finish!

Unmatched? They're a good band but I wouldn't go that far.
Spirit. Three, at least of the first four albums were really good. The Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus was really special.

Buffalo Springfield. You had Stephen Stills, Neil Young and Richie Furay along with talented bassmen and a good drummer.

Traffic. Never had the big hit or wide recognition.
