Best artist/group you'd forgotten about and wish you hadn't?

[o'malley]

Gentle Giant - The standard for innovation and sheer musicianship.

Of course! Thank you for reminding me of them. *deep bow* I haven't a single LP or CD by GG, which is a drastic omission. Must see about remedying this.

My dad's got GG on 8track.

U2- before they were abducted and replaced by replicas

and iPods

Showing my age....

Wang Chung (pre "Dance Hall Days" - I once saw them at a gig where the band honestly did outnumber the audience)

Regards

I heard some of that "Pre Dance Hall Day Stuff on an import but have never been able to find it! Had a tune called "Ti-Na-Na" ring a bell!

Oh yeah I forgot......The Church

[Voidoid Surrealist]

Einstuerzende Neubauten. Love their stuff, just haven't listened to them in ages.

Do yourself a favor and wait until dark, put on Zeichnungen des Patienten OT and turn off all the lights. That'll get you back in the spirit...

[garret]

bailter space... amazing swirly stuff from down new zealand way, like my bloody valentine but prolific!

digable planets! time & space, percussion & bass, the whole world moving at a blinding pace... I'm cool like dat...

Archers of Loaf... big giant indie rock superstars of the late 90s. (cheated though, I dug them up the other day and was amazed again how f'n awesome they were.)

[Hink]

Fort Nox and/or Brownsville Station...

Agreed, Gary- I was just listening to Tull's Benefit and the Allman Brothers' Live at the Fillmore earlier today- I should play that stuff more often
