Best Forgotten Bands of the 70's.

Here is another channel. "Thebestdream I had". Many albums from the 70s, some from the 60s. Some of these I've heard of, many I have not.

Turns out this is great channel. Every title I clicked on was pretty damn good.

A few of the ones I listened to (and downloaded).

This band initially met working on road construction together... then hot footed it back to Scotland and formed :

Beggars Opera- Raymonds Road.

I have developed a liking in recent months for BRINSLEY SCHWARZ first album in particular from late 1970 which sounds like a cross between CS&N and some of Brinsley Schwarz original country rock songs.

Totally agree Nai I only really picked up on them about a year ago although I had heard of the name Brinsley Schwarz for many years and they always seemed to ne lumped in with 'pub rock' bands.

Yep, Silver Pistol was the first album I bought for 90p second hand!
They have a great DNA as they were formed from.. I think?... kippington Lodge?
Check out Ian Gomm's solo stuff.
( my LP cover is a bit battered.)
