Pernice Brothers - Overcome by Happiness
Great album and band - like all of Joe Pernice's incarnations: Chappaquedic Skyline and his solo album (which is the soundtrack to a book he wrote). Working Girls from the Pernice Brothers' The World Won't End is exhibit A in the trial against corporate radio and why great music rarely makes the airwaves. Working Girls:

"Laid" by James
Matt Nathanson covered it. It was in just about every American Pie movie. Pops up on my ipod all the time

In 1973 some high school kids in a small town in Iowa decided to make a record.
Shadrack Chameleon - "Don't Let It Get You Down"
Fans of the Velvets/Bowie/Mott/Roxy Music sound should check it out

Elmore Leonard's favorite band, The Stone Coyotes.
They're from Massachusetts but became kind of popular in Houston doing local gigs and getting airplay on a small indy radio station here. Straight forward simple rock-n-roll that tells a tale.
The Stone Coyotes - First Lady of Rock
Stone Coyotes - Church of the Falling Rain

I'm sure tons of people are familiar with Brian Eno, but I never see anyone talk about his album Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy. It is brilliant, overlooked 70s art-pop (before he started doing ambient music for airports stuff).

I really like Eno and lean more towards Another Green World and Here Come the Warm Jets, which are in that same time period... I included a song off AGW on the favorite obscure guitar solo theread...

Obscure and it's a shame.
Wonderful melancholy pop music... I like everything Joe's done...
On Chappaquidick skyline, there is a great cover of New Order's Leave Me Alone

Ironically, there was a hit song on this record "Laid" but it's probably the worst track on it.
Anybody remember it/them? Simply incredible song writing. I saw 'em in '94 too and they put on a damned great live show.
when the band plays at red rocks (seats thousands) and sells out, I just can't say no one has heard of them.
My two favorites that no one has heard of are....
- Guts - Freedom - Trouble in France
Everyone from your sister to your cousin to your grouchy neighbor will like this album. Especially stoners. But non stoners won't get all the plays
- Saturday looks good to me - Lift me up - good ole fashioned twee.

Haven't listened to them in a while but here's one that my buddy got me into. Ride the Blinds

I posted them in a similar thread recently as well
The Sheepdogs
A newish rock band from Canada that has put out some good stuff and won some awards up there. Very southern rockish sounding sometimes and more recently a Black Keys sound since Dan Auerback produced their last album.

I saw the Sheepdogs earlier this year, they were great.
My nieces boyfriend is in a band I have mentioned here before, The Brothers Comatose, but they just had a video on CMT they did with Nicki Blume, so they may get a little more known.
Song is Morning Time

Moses Guest is another local Houston band that deserves more attention. I'd put them up against Widespread any day.

Anyone in BR in the 80's and a fan of the punk scene would know the US Times, I wanna go to London.
I still love that song

I picked up an autographed copy of "Laid" in the used cd bin.
