Bill Quateman - a Chicago player (no pun) from the '70s played some of the best urban (just a guy from the neighborhood) rock'n roll, funky sweet kind of sounds and I miss him... (can't find him on CD... wazup with THAT?) Also loved Tufano & Giamarcie (spelling?) (played with the Buckinghams or someone) Killer album can't find anywhere (cover of "I'm a Loser" will make you weep).. My 2-cents
The best band? Maybe not BUT...........
Let's hear what bands or musicians you think were not necessarily the best but should have gotten much more recognition for their talent. For example: a really good drummer who was in a really crappy band and never got the attention they deserved. Or a band that had great music but the timing or managing was all wrong.
