I'm feeling like hearing some interesting music that I've never heard before, so I thought I'd start a thread on FReeper's favorite underrated bands. Post several good examples of their music and why you feel they're underrated. Should be fun.
I’m just automatically going to like a song that talks about readybook!
“It’s that little souvenir of a terrible year
Which makes my eyes feel sore
Oh I never should have said the books that you read
Were all I loved you for”
To bad you can’t download MP3’s from Youtube anymore. I did manage to get some Tractors and Refreshments tunes one of which goes for over an hour.
The first rock concert I ever went to at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City, and they never showed up!
That said...
Poco is THE most underrated band...ever.

Canned Heat - “Let’s Work Together” (vintage video)
The Dave Clark Five - “Glad All Over” (vintage video)
The Yardbirds - “Train Kept A-Rollin’” (vintage video)
Leningrad Cowboys - “Those Were The Days”
Fifty Foot Hose - “I Flew At The Speed Of Smell”
Flying Burrito Brothers - “Christine’s Tune”
Cold Blood - “I Just Want To Make Love To You”
Sam Buterra and the Witnesses. Best backup. Ever.
Definitely underrated
I saw them in 1979 with Molly Hatchet and 38 Special. The Outlaws blew them away.
Great list! Thumbs up.
I can see that, they’re very Beatles-like.
if you’ve never heard the seekers, they’re unknown to you
look them up on youtube and come back next month!!!!
Probably about the same number of people who knew what the "Joy Division" was.
The Selecter - “Missing Words”
Madness - “It Must Be Love”
The Bosstones - “Someday I Suppose”
Melbourne Ska Orchestra - “Get Smart”
The Aquabats - “Super Rad!”
