proof that I have way too much time to think during my long commute, I was thinking of bands that some people might unfairly dismiss or not give enough credit.
the one that stuck in my head: Fleetwood Mac. I think that some people unfairly lump them with 70's soft rock bands like Bread, Ambrosia, Little River Band (or even Air Supply...gasp), which is completely unfair and inaccurate. Fleetwood Mac is a ridiculously great band comprised of 3 great songwriters, 3 distinct voices and top-notch musicianship. lumping them with such soft bands is just ridiculous. but I think many do.
Can you think of any bands that you like that some people unfairly categorize or dismiss? Bands that don't get adequate "due" by some people.
note: this is NOT about bands that "should be more famous". I think we can all name dozens of bands that make us think "if only people had taste, this band would be huge!!!" - such bands stay respected but not widely popular. this isn't about them, this is about bands that get unfairly dismissed or disrespected.
or maybe my mind just wanders too much
