A lot of good songs and maybe it’s because I was around when they were all released but most of them are on my playlist.

Here’s one for you: Misty Roses by Tim Hardin. Check it out! It doesn’t get better than this.

I was sure The Israelites was used in the movie Drugstore Cowboy. I just got two contradictory answers on that from ChatGPT.

I'm not sure about the movie, but it's a great song. One of my all-time favorites.

Good call on TTD. People forget how good that first album is.

I would say very few of these are neglected. Gotta dig deeper, like this:

"Have I the Right", by the Ivy;

"Get the Message", Cyrus Eyrie;

"Roses and Rainbows", Danny Hutton;

"Mama Said", Junior;

The entire LP output by The Move ("Shazam", in particular).

You're welcome!

All of my love is just gorgeous. Shows Zeppelins range from stomping metal to fields of mustard flowers.

What a great list.

Would’ve included Walk on By - Dionne Warwick… but maybe lots of people have heard it.

It was very popular in its day, but isn't heard as much now. I will add it and credit you, thanks.
