Hey arcam...Yes, I did note the similarity to Paul Rodgers on certain tracks (and Robert Plant as well).  Their drummer has Bonham down too.Watched a few You Tube videos.  Not sure if Keep on Swinging & Electric Man are more recent.  Maybe the...

PS - "Buchanan, despite singing in a higher register, demonstrates an Eric Burdon-like swagger on 'Young Love.'"Had to come back to toot my own horn on that call about Buchanan vis a vis Burdon.  Apparently the AllMusic Guide reviewer saw it that ...

First installment though I won’t promise to write an impression for each of Arcam’s discs (I’m sure you are heart broken over that!!!). I tried Spock’s Beard first...listened to a good bit of "The Oblivion Particle". Then a couple tracks from "X" ...

Arcam & nutty  - will do.  I'll surf that list and start w/Spock's Beard.  I  admit to having a short attention span so if something doesn't grab me right away, I won't stick with it.  BUT I'll often re-visit stuff.  Just have to be "in the mo...

@arcam - compliments on your "arcane" taste.  The only ones from your list I've even heard of are those below.  I marked the ones I've actually ever listened to....Meat PuppetsMonster MagnetMother Love BonePorcupine Tree - listenedSpock's Beard - ... 
What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report
Started out listening to some A.A. Bondy "American Hearts". Decided to check out Verbena from whence Bondy came. Gave a listen to Souls For Sale. Pretty different than Bondy’s solo stuff...it rocks.  Liked it.

Verbena Souls For Sale (their debut)A video for a single (Way Out West) from their last album, La Musica Negrahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJQuymYY9s8 Maybe not as obscure as some but more obscure than they deserved to be.   
Jazz for aficionados
You know visiting this thread is like dropping in on a friend living in an apartment with thin walls whose neighbors are a loud and dysfunctional family. Kind of interesting, odd and funny all at the same time. Just sayin’.... 
Whats playing on your system today?
@falconquest - thanks for the reminder about Phoebe Snow.  I remember when Poetry Man was getting a lot of air play.  That s/t album had great sonics too.  Pulled up Second Childhood on Spotify.  I always liked "All Over"...Nine of diamonds, nice ...

@nutty - I get bored easy. Heard a lot over the years. Some modern things seem so derivative. This Beth Hart "Immortal" is a strong LP. She has some voice...tears it UP and sings it like she means it. Reminds me of Janis...maybe crossed with one o... 
Best Sounding Classic Rock Cd's
A bunch of good suggestions already.  Jumping on something tom6897 touched on way earlier: Bad Company.  Listening to Burnin' Sky right now.  It sounds great on YouTube!  Guessing the CD would be pretty great too.

nutty - Fantastic...keep the feed back coming. BTW - as a result of arcam88’s Paul Rodgers reference on the Obscure Bands thread and the link you posted to The Law, you all got me on a Bad Company jag. Someone has posted quite a few complete Bad C...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvjVGh0jmzY Thanks, @nutty, @arcam88 - The Law, The Firm...what is this, "Lawyers ’R’ Us"?Was completely ignorant of Rodgers ever teaming up with Gilmour. Looks like that might be well after his partnering with Page...

@dbtom2  &  @nutty - so glad you like Sugarcane.  Privileged to make the introduction.  Wish he got more love when he was alive.  He was around a lot of years.  Paid his dues.  Like Jean Luc he played with Zappa.  In fact, Zappa sort of "rescu...

@arcam88Don't know "The Law" but do recall Paul Rodgers in a "supergroup" briefly with Jimmy Page called, "The Firm".  2 albums released, maybe.  Not sure who the 3rd member was without looking things up.  Wondering if that's what you are thinking...
