The only one I can think of for the moment is my last post on the prog rock thread, a band/album from 1976 titled/named Phoenix. 3 former members of Argent, singer/guitarist, bassplayer/guitarist and drummer.

I thought these were supposed to be *obscure* albums. :?

Well, "Classic" is certainly an objective term.

So, I guess "Obscure" is too.

As for the oxymoron-ness of this thread, think "what obscure album would be considered a classic if only a few more people had heard it?"

Quite a new album but got everything in it. Proper sneering, innuendo laden rock n roll that reminds us constantly that rock n roll was never intended for kids

In no particular order
If I Could Only Remember My Name- David Crosby (San Francisco All Stars, excellent Garcia guitar work and undeniably beautiful harmonies)
Live Wire - Live Wire (sounded like early Dire Straits)
Armegeddon - (Keith Relf of Yardbirds fame, his last band comparable to Zep, had a minor hit with Silver Tightrope)
Asylum Choir - (band included Leon Russell J.J. Cale and other migrant Okies who were all doing studio work in L.A. together in the late '60's)
Somewhere Outside -The Ugly Ducklings (Toronto's version of the Stones/Yardbirds in the mid-sixties)
Timepiece - the churls (late sixties psychedelic/garage band first and maybe only LP on A&M records worth it for the title song alone)

I should have added Foxtrot by Genesis. I really love that early freaky Genesis when Peter Gabriel was their singer.

Detroit Mitch Ryder's post-Detroit wheels outfit with Steve Hunter on guitar, amazing version of Lou Reed's Rock and Roll, the great Johnny Badanajek (SP?) on drums, check out "Long Neck Goose" for a satisfying dose of propulsive rock.
