Bands who should have been big, but weren't

[virgirlo]

Shea Seger - an excellent american female vocalist. great album and excellent live (first saw her support Toploader), but she has seemed to have disappeared altogether.

Also, Toploader- but i am biased as I went to school with most of them!!

I'd keep quiet about that if I were you.

FOURTEENTH EYE SHOULD BE MASSIVE!!!

Yeah, totally agree.

If only they had a decent vocalist.....

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

I believe that GP suffered from the same problem as Peter Perret of the Only Ones - might be a reason why they never became big. Saw them at the Dome in '77 and they were excellent.

Slightly earlier; how about Brinsley Schwartz? Never recovered from their over-hyped launch but were a pretty good band.

Could be wring but I think that Brinsley Schwatrz became the Rumour (Graham Parker's band).

Keep up GUY. That was dealt with earlier in the thread.


Are we going to quickly for you?

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

I haven't got time to read the whole thread MAX. Some of us have got WORK to do you know.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

The Christians!

 

[whitelion]

Tygers of Pan Tang

 

[tinx]

To a certain extent Pop Will Eat itself. Kind of made it but should have been so much bigger.

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Kiss of the Gypsy were absolutely awsome. Sadly they only released one album before getting swallowed up by label politics

GRRR

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

Yeah, totally agree.

It was Yoko Ono that spelt the end for that band. It somehow lost direction....

 

[Uncle Spielberg]
