Just trying to introduce the world to some great artists/groups that aren't being played on the radio. It can be any genre of music.
Here is one that I listened to growing up because they're from my hometown. Everyone loved this song at my high school!

BMC - Gangsta Vibe
If you listen to the song, it's pretty obvious of where I live.

Not sure if this counts, but I'm always surprised that people don't realize this album exists...Derek and the Dominoes - layla and other love songs.

It was released in early 70s and went rather unnoticed at the time despite featuring Layla. Mainly bc clapton wanted to make music for music and not just the latest "clapton" album.

Imo, it features the greatest guitar play on any album, ever. Which makes sense when you pair 2 of the greatest guitarists, clapton & Duane allman and have them shred with an unlimited supply of heroin.

Every track is great, expect that last one. It's a piece of shite....Haha

The Comas - Sweet Sweet 69

The Comas - Come My Sunshine

I have no idea who gave me one of their albums but I had it on my iTunes one day and decided to try em out. I have been a huge fan since, bought all their albums, and love the majority of their songs. The lead singer has a side project now called Electric Owls. I keep hoping for a new Comas record but its been 5 years since the last and no news at all.

Smooth pure southern rock, with a little bluegrass.

redd volkaert & cindy cashdollar.
redd used to play guitar for merle haggard. he's master of the tele. cindy is probably one of the best pedal steel players out there.

home in san antone

i'd be willing to bet that most people that live in louisiana aren't aware that the best slide player in the world is one of their own.

Trout Fishing in America was fairly popular in NWA when I was in school. Pretty good music, and kid friendly.
