We Canucks get to hear Chilliwack rather frequently, thanks to some arcane Canadian law which mandates that 35% of all music be by Canadian musicians. Chilliwack put out some excellent work though.
Holy crap, I haven't heard switching to glide in prolly 15 years. How about Amnesia by the Pousette Dart Band. Bad Attidude and Summertime Girls by Honeymoon Suite I Wanna Be Your Driver by Chuck Berry Time Passages by Al Stewart Little Sheila by Slade...talk about a one hit wonder Chestnut Mare by The Byrds pretty soon I'm gonna dig out my records

Those were the days, mid fifties thru to the early seventies. Great music, great cars, what an era! :TU: John
Deisel from their LP "Watts In A Tank" ......(All aboard) Sausalito Summernight Jeff Pecarro on drums in Lido Shuffle.
Anyone remember Atlanta Rythm Section? Most remember "Imaginary Lover",but there are a couple of tunes they did that have their distinctive sound- "Homesick","Champagne Jam", and "I'm Not Gonna Let it Bother Me Tonight". Or ABBA with "I do,I do,I do,Ido", "Waterloo" and "SOS". I used to hear Bad Finger "Silver,Blue and Gold" all the time on the radio,but never hear it played anymore. THAT was a feel good tune.
Attention fellow Buickists....get yourself either Sirius or XM radio. I have Sirius in both my Jeeps and hear 80% of these songs there's a 50's,60's,70's,80's,90's channel plus Buzzsaw and classic rewind as well as others...
I was at both the Champagne Jams, it was overwhelming for a 17 year old kid that had never seen a band perform live before... Bert

I bet you won't hear this song played on XM or Sirius......The original version of "Mah Na Mah Na"-the Muppets song from Sesame Street,by Piero Umilani. When I was a kid,that song played all the time on the radio.
"Do you feel like we do" by Peter Frampton "The Peter Gunn Theme" not sure who did it but its on the Blues Brothers soundtrack "The Outlaw Torn" by the mighty MetallicA "Black Magic" by Slayer

Anyone remember Doug and the Slugs " Too Bad " from the 80's. Alot of their other songs were great too.
I saw them some 30 years ago at a music fest down in Fargo, North Dakota There were 5 bands playing that day, with Nazareth as the headliner. I don't recall who the other 3 bands were though.o No: For all I know, each of them could be huge megastars now.

So cool guys...sooooo cool. Like the title says "Forgotten cool songs". Songs that you re-discover and wonder why you have not listened to it in so long. Such a nice little surprise! Sometimes it means you, for the first time, discover it. That's even mo' betta. A listened to Dan Fogelberg's Captured Angel album once and heard "Aspen/These Days" on side 1. Wow, I was impressed. Here is this song that has been pressed into vinyl sitting in someones basement for 30 years, and I discover it in 2008. Nice. Robin Trower is another one. Never knew he existed until recently.
Red River Rock by Johnny and the Hurricanes Time is Tight and Green Onions by Booker T and the MGs Walk Don't Run by the Ventures Rebel 'Rouser and Forty Miles of Bad Road by Duane Eddy Great old instrumentals :TU: :beer John
