Old Gems You've Recently Discovered

Love this Legs Diamond song. Found it on YouTube after discovering Starz. Anyone else think this is a hidden gem in classic rock?

Woman

I didn't know anything about Legs Diamond until a few years ago when Taha mentioned them in the forum. I only have one of their albums but I think the song you posted is top shelf.

I've heard of them, but never actually heard them until now. On Woman, the band sounds a bit like Judus Priest around the time of their first two (and best) albums.

Good track Aero, I admit for some reason I never got into LEGS DIAMOND, but I will give them more of a listen. I was only discussing this band yesterday.I was raving to my pal Sweaty about footage on you tube featuring 2 ..no 3 of my favourite guitarists all on stage together.Uli Jon Roth [ ex Scorpions],Michael Schenker,Richie Ranno [ Starz] on stage with LEGS DIAMOND !! Looked one hell of a gig !!
Keep listening to STARZ Aero , one of my favourite bands of all time

Legs Diamond were a phenomena in San Antonio for years...along with Garfield and Saxon. Great stuff.

Oh, and Moxy's first album....forgive the youtube clip if its bad, lol, my soundcard is shot, so not sure of quality.

These are some bands I haven't listened to for years. Before I started buying imports I was looking for any rock albums I could find.

Season Of The Witch




Sunshine Superman




Catch The Wind

An old nasty Blues song! It cracks me up to hear this language in a 1930's tune! Her sense of humor and enthusiasm just adds to it!

Lucille Bogan-Shave 'Em Dry


This whole album was a gem upon first listen but this song alone is now in my top two Cooper songs period! I never knew Cooper ever had a band that was this interesting!

Alice Cooper-Halo Of Flies


I love the whole Nebraska album but this song was the first song to pull me in on first listen and the most lasting impression. Sounds like a mix of Depeche Mode and Roy Orbison!

Bruce Springsteen-State Trooper


Once again the whole album is great but the track with Patti Smith is a great collaboration!

Blue Oyster Cult (Ft. Patti Smith)-The Revenge of Vera Gemini


This song or many songs on the album, Various Positions, may get overshadowed by "Hallejuhah", but I'm really fond of this simple track. A soothing track from a great storyteller with some subtle beautiful embellishments!

Leonard Cohen-Night Comes On


I'm late on all of these and no revelations here but this is pretty much every element one could like about Styx in one epic track. There's something about this album in general I didn't get from "The Grand Illusion" and Paradise Theatre".

Styx-Pieces of Eight/Aku Aku


This band in general. They have so many different sounds. This is the track that grabbed me first though. It made me think of The Animals. Looking into getting an album by them soon to explore more.

Bebop Deluxe-Sister Seagull
