Title: Best Albums Nobody Heard
Post by: 2 of 3 on May 03, 2016, 05:46:45 pm
We should be able to make a pretty good list of albums here. I quite keen to hear what you folks come up with.  :)

This is my favourite Badfinger album. It's their Abbey Road(if you ask me) It was barely released before it got pulled for legal issues.

Mary Margaret O'Hara- Miss America

She released ONE album in 1988 and almost nothing since. An acquired taste for sure, but the whole album is great.

I will continue to beat the drum for this group.....whether or not many people ever hear this CD, I still think they are pretty great. The Corner Laughers!

Great great idea.

These guys have an album Broken Bells.  Eponymous.  Not their second album called After The Disco.
EDIT: This might not be in the Nobody-Heard category.

Villagers.

These two albums are the type that you slowly realize how great they are through repeated listenings.
