Led Zeppelin - In the Evening

The guitar riff on this song is amazing but for some reason this song rarely gets mentioned among their best songs. One of their most underrated imho.

"Jefferson Airplane"


Of all their cheesy bad music in the 80s I think the one that was underrated and pretty good was "No Way Out". Not only one of their few interesting songs but a bit or an underrated movie as well.

Yeah, torn on that one. Figured it can get in because it wasn't one of their hits or something like London Calling.

I thought about Straight to Hell or Know Your Rights, but those are kind of the same deal as Guns of Brixton. To some people, all Clash but three songs (Train in Vain, Rock the Casbah and Should I Stay or Should I Go) is obscure. But to those who know the Clash, chances are they know the whole catalog (there wasn't that much).

If anything from the Clash makes the cut, it should be from Sandinista!

I swapped it out for "Somebody Got Murdered."

I remember I found that album(s) for 99 cents on tape around 89-90 or so. I was happy that day.

this is in the running for GOAT, but you´re right, you don´t hear that anywhere (unless in the company of someone who loves the Stones).

Where would "This is Radio Clash" fall? I think it would qualify.
