2009 TDPRI Giveaway Winners List is available HERE

staxman · July 16th, 2007, 08:21 AM

In addition to the great guitar/gear tips, I've always loved the great musical knowledge and insight on this forum. I've been hipped to some really great music from you guys and gals that I otherwise might have never heard.

So with that in mind, I'd like to suggest we post own personal nominations of what we consider to be a "lost classic" album or CD. Most all of us know of classics like "Sgt Pepper", "Are You Experienced?", "Who's Next", and so on-- I'd like to hear about some albums/CDs that you feel kinda flew by "under the radar", but are nonetheless classics in their own right. Please feel free to nominate from any genre or era-- yesteryear to the present. Give us all some musical leads to check out!

All my album picks are in my area of specialty-- Classic Soul/R&B:

"Get It While You Can" : Howard Tate

"You Got My Mind Messed Up" : James Carr

"Eight Men, Four Women" : O.V. Wright

"Letters From Mississippi" : Eddie Hinton
(Actually, all of Eddie's solo albums/demos are stellar-- blackest white man you ever heard).

I'll probably think of more later, but in the meantime, let's hear yours!

Killer Tofu · July 16th, 2007, 08:33 PM

Captain Beyond's self-titled album was fantastic, but it's pretty much unknown, it seems. You can definitely head the Iron Butterfly influence in them, but they're more conceptual, for lack of a better term.

16 Horsepower - Sackcloth 'n' Ashes. "Thrashgrass" if you will. Bluegrass/folk/rock unlike any other. David Eugene Edwards uses pretty much all vintage instruments, from his banjos to his accordions. Great musician, nice slide work too. Can't recommend it enough.

Pete Yorn - musicforthemorningafter. It's a little new to be considered a lost classic, but it's brilliant nonetheless. This guy is going to be the next Springsteen. Great lyrics, interesting songs, recorded the album without a band, doing everything himself.

Heather Anne Peel · July 16th, 2007, 08:43 PM

Didn't read all, but here's some:

Big Star "#1 Record/Radio City"
The Knack "Get The Knack"
Howlin' Wolf "The London Sessions"
Rolling Stones "Goat's Head Soup"
The Black Crowes "Amorica"
The Who "Facedances"
Derek And The Dominos "In Concert"
REM "Monster"

Not sure if these are lost, exactly, but I dig 'em lots!

AnthonyV · July 16th, 2007, 10:07 PM

ELVIS by Elvis Presley.
The music says it ALL - espeically Presley's renditions of Little Richard songs! I wore this album out as a kid trying to figure out Scotty Moore's famed "slapback" guitar sound!

AFTER SCHOOL SESSIONS by Chuck Berry.
One of Berry's original Chess albums from the '50s - and one well worth discovering and rediscovering.

BUDDY HOLLY by Buddy Holly (& The Crickets).
The first and only solo album released (1957) by the legendary rock and roll pioneer during his short lifetime and career.

Though most of the songs have long appeared on endless Holly releases over the years, still hearing the genius behind WORDS OF LOVE and LISTEN TO ME make this orignal album worth listening to again and again and again...And the rest is Rock and Roll.

e-merlin · July 17th, 2007, 12:45 AM

Gotta second Get the Knack. Great piece of work.

Have to add Gerry Rafferty's "Night Owl". However, just about all of his stuff should be classic.

Got to mention Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers two albums. Great straight ahead blues-rock.

I would also like to add any Chilliwack with "Too Loud" MacLeod on guitars and drums, especially "Opus X."

Califiddler · July 17th, 2007, 03:07 AM

Los Lobos' first two full-length LPs, How Will the Wolf Survive and By the Light of the Moon. I still listen to these all the time. Kiko is great, too, but for me these two records have aged better than Kiko because the songwriting is so consistent.

+1!

Most people see the "Starship" name on the album and look the other way. Alot of guest musicians on this album too. It's like The Dead meets Jefferson Airplane.

No "We Built This City" or "Sara" on this disc.

I'll nominate my all time favorite album, The Refreshments Fizzy, Fuzzy Big & Buzzy. Great powerpop/rock & roll, and the album cover seals the deal...

Honky Tonk Union - Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers
1001 - Dead Hot Workshop
Fast Moving Cars, Let It Go - The Clarks
Big Night Without You, Arlington To Boston - Emmet Swimming

The first album is tremendous, Maggot Brain is brilliant as well. By Free Your Mind And Your Ass Will Follow, I begin to lose interest...just a little. __________________ www.myspace.com/nyvaults

I still listen to these all the time. Kiko is great, too, but for me these two records have aged better than Kiko because the songwriting is so consistent. __________________ "In the fiddler's house, all are dancers."
