| Great music few are aware of. Any genre. For rock try Mia Dyson - "Parking Lots" and "Struck Down"For blues try Trampled Under Foot - "Badlands" | |
| BAT POLL... BTW, the most famous person to reference the "BAT pole"? Adam West | |
| Most overrated bands Before listening to Los Lobos I read several professional critics saying how brilliant they were. IMO, they are ... meh. So IMO overrated. | |
