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.

Savoy Brown Hellbound Train great solid album from an often overlooked group.

Tim Buckley : Goodbye And Hello - I Never Asked To Be Your Mountain

Love : Da Capo - She Comes In Colors

I saw Warren Zevon perform but I just can't remember where. In L.A., of course. Aquarius Theater? McCabe's? The Troubadour? He was okay, but I'm sure even he'd agree that the artists who covered his tunes probably did them better.
