Forgotten by who?
When I look at a lot of the bands mentioned in this topic I guess I have a much better memory than most people.

^^In the spirit of things many of the bands listed would draw a blank from most young people today, compared to let's say The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Eagles, Aerosmith, by comparison most of the bands mentioned in here are forgotten.

 

[Mr. Shadow]

 

[Spanish Castle Magic]

Budgie... The Welsh Kings!

I was listening to this LP yesterday and it was one of those groups who were like a one hit wonder..

How about John Denver? In the 70's he was RCA's second biggest-selling artist, after Elvis. He had a bunch of #1 hits (a few of which are pretty good). He did TV specials and movies. He was everywhere. Now, where is he? I never hear him on oldies radio (pop or country). Except for inclusion on a couple of Time-Life comps., you never hear about him anymore.

He passed away in 1997.

Thanks, but I knew that. I just meant "where is he?" in the sense of "in his prime he was all over the place, now it's almost like he never made a record".
