You know, for all the cool music that gets posted around here there are some really surprising albums that haven’t made an appearance on here yet. So that’s my focus this week, filling in some gaps as I see it. And you know, it was kind of cool to go through and pick through some of these. Some are surprising to me as they are classic, others were not. I found enough to make a few posts, but lets see how this goes and then we'll see about another round or two of these or not.
I did my best to double check this but maybe, just maybe, I made a mistake because there is sooooo much to go through on here, but I'm sure "someone" will call me out if thats true. Two rules though, 1) a track from the album must have been posted at some point in this web sites life, so it's not a question of wether we've discussed these albums or not. And 2) I omitted the videos posted in the Groups category since thats not really the point of this...
What other Classic Rock albums are missing? Listen and let’s fill in some gaps!

I now you've touted City Boy a lot in the past, and I know they were heavily produce by Mutt. Would make for a great VOTW?
Believe me, I've tried, but it's difficult to make a VOTW City Boy-special. They've only made 2 or 3 video's, and I think, I've posted them all before, a few years back. And the songs in those video's are not among their best.
But what about this album:
This is my favorite track from the album, which at the time reminded me, or the production, of RUSH's "Hold Your Fire".
Montrose - I have this album, but I'm not particularly familiar with it. I may have listened to it once. Sammy sounds good. For some strange reason, I get a Kiss vibe from this song. Maybe it's just a lyrical thing, specifically the chorus. This is a pretty good song, but how in the world can a band become disenchanted with their sound after one album?
The Police - I had this on vinyl. I listened to side two most of the time. I never could get into side one as a whole. I do love Synchronicity II from this album, but this song, not so much. It took forever for the song to start.
Cheap Trick - Awesome song. The album itself is unremarkable to me. I do have it, but I just can't remember much about it. I think maybe I need to listen to it soon.
Santana - So this song is sung by future Journey vocalist and keyboardist Gregg Rolie. I wonder what it would have been like if Steve Perry would have joined Santana instead of Journey? Anyway, I like this. The guitar is mesmerizing. I have got to get me some Santana. Actually, I did pick up a used copy of Abraxas a few months back at the cd store, so maybe I should start there.
Nice topic and playlist. There's tons of albums that haven't been touched on here. Might be a good idea to work up a playlist based on bands that haven't been touched on here...just a thought. Great job.
Interesting, I thought this Cheap Trick addition would spark something... Outside of their first 4 they are a band that's truly tough to gauge!
I love Santana, especially from 77-82. Check out Marathon! Probably his best IMO!
