No doubt it's very good. I just considered the fact that I don't remember it getting anywhere near as much radio airplay as their biggest hits as proof of it being underrated. I think it's as good as any of the bigger hits.

radio airplay
this is the second time I´ve seen this. what radio are yáll referring to?

these rock classics stations are extremely meat and potatoes, or a, b and c.

like I said, that is THE definitive song, for many a fan.

Kinks - Destroyer


This is the correct answer.

I'll add this one. To me, it was their last great song before they went completely to crap...

river song - dennis wilson

not that DW is a legend in his own right, but being a beach boy counts for something, and the group did play this song, but i dont know if there's a beach boys version out there. his one solo album is incredible and flying way under the radar imo.


Dude, I just listened to this song today for the first time in a long time. It's fricking weird you picked this.

all up in your mind bro.

ive prob played that song every other day for the past two months. hooked on that record hard. def changed my view of dennis as just some hack drummer who made it on nepotism, which i guess is partially true.

Yep, Dennis was underrated. Forever is one of my favorite BB songs.

It was shitty the way he died.

Make It Good is another great dennis BB tune. really shows where he was heading into Pacific Ocean Blue.

its crazy how tragic and gloomy BB mythology is compared to their popular image. i wish there was an exhaustive, "beatles anthology" style doc on the boys. itd be hella depressing.

I don't know if it is popular or not, but Lonesome Cowboy Bill by VU is one of my favorites.

David Bowie - Underground

I thought this was a pretty good catchy song considering it was thrown together for a movie soundtrack (Labyrinth).
