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.😁

@whart - agree about Patto and Ollie for sure. And indeed, one person's 'obscure' might be another person's 'very familiar with for ages'. All interesting nonetheless.

@thecarpathian - I hear you on Roads to Moscow; first Al Stewart I ever heard, and the voice, the lyrics, and that haunting melody - just superb.

@winoguy17 - Don't Ask Me Questions is awesome; I remember when that first came out; been a GP fan for a long time and was at that live show they put out from '79 at the Old Waldorf in San Francisco.
