    Typically Tropical, possibly the best band to enter the charts.

    Early Fleetwood Mac (before the wimmin joined), are still very much underrated in my mind. <ok>

    Earth, Wind and Fire and The Stylistics deserved more credit.

    I always liked Level 42 in the early part of their career... Proper British Jazz-Funk...

    It all went a bit commercial in 1986 but I was a huge fan by then and was pretty much nailed on to buy everything they cared to release! <yikes>

    Underrated bands for me would be The Sensational Alex Harvey Band who were moderately succesful but never got their due acclaim.

    I saw Alex Harvey live in Germany just 3 days before he died and he was steaming drunk but still amazing. A real Rock wild man with a distinctive sound, he opened with Faith Healer, imho one of the greatest rock songs of all time. I was deaf for 3 days such was the volume, but it was worth it to see perhaps the most unfairly overlooked star of Scottish rock and music in general.
