and by the way I thought it was supposed to be UNDERRATED albums...
ANGEL DUST (great record) sold over 3 million ( so did ROCKS or PULSE )... so I don't think they are UNDERRATED...

I have looked over alot of these lists and agree with quite a bit of them, but there is one album I've yet to see. It's from the group "Sweet" and its called "Give us a wink". Check it out, if you can find it. This is some early 70's metal at its finest!!!

I would like to make an upgrade on my 20 underrated albums
1.YES-Relayer.(Heavy bass technics by Chris Squire.)
2.Deep Purple-Purple Passages(Early years)
3.Black Stone Cherry-Folklore and Superstition(I only heard this group from a friend.Hopefully it won't be underrated)
4.Mott the Hoople-The Ballad Of Mott:A Retrospective
5.Triumph-Sport Of Kings(One of their last LPs that didn't get much air play)
6.Savatage.(I think all their LPs are underrated.Most of Savatage's LPs are concept albums.This group is strickly heavy metal with a flare of classical music. Jon Oliva and Paul O'nell with the band puts on a awssume production.Oliva and O'nell also produce and write material for the Trans-Saberian Orchestra.Which for people who are in the Christmas Spirit and into some head banging is in for a treat)
7.Rush-Powered Windows
8.Rush-Hold Your Fire
9.Uriah Heep-Look At Yourself (The only albums I heard at first in popularity was Demons and Wizards and The Magicians Birthday.
10.Queen-Queen.
11.Queen-Queen2.
12.Steel-Steel(I got samplers from Columbia Records back in '72 or'73 called Playback.They had a tune by Steel called "Road Runner",a remake of a tune by Humble Pie.The album as far as I know didn't get much air play.I found the LP in a cut out bin of a record store.It's one of the best heavy rock bands I've ever heard.I would classify it between Jimi Hendrix and Deep Purple.
13.Kerry Livgren-Seeds Of Change
14.Spock's Beard-Octane
15.Dream Theater-Octavarium
16.Grand Funk Railroad-E Pluribus Funk
17.Argent-In Deep
18.Steppenwolf-Steppenwolf 7
19.My Morning Jacket-Evil Erges
20.Spooky Tooth-Witness(Mick Jones of Foreigner and Gary Wright came from this band)
