Artist: Nether Man
Artist: Stephane Attias
Much like his brother Alex Attias, Stephane Attias started DJ'ing in his homebase of Lusanne, Switzerland in the late 80s. After gaining a solid reputation as a jock and scenester, Attias moved into radio and began presenting a weekly dance program on Swiss national radio called Cool It Down. In the mid-90s, he started the Chic label to... [+] Read More
Artist: Canto
The very short-lived Canto are mostly of note for including guitarist Steve Howe in their ranks, shortly before he joined Yes and just after he left the psychedelic group Tomorrow. The somewhat complicated story behind their formation is rooted in the formation of Deep Purple, which started out as a project called Roundabout. Drummer Bobby... [+] Read More
Artist: Colonel Ham & The infidels
Imagine because you can: Colonel Ham and his merry band of musical perverts...the legendary Infidels....fending off angry hippies after invading to perform amidst an unavoidably sweaty drum circle.....the sensitive earth children quickly turn, frustrated at their intentional inability to grasp the concept of the Colonel's wayward, ridiculous...

Artist: George Morgan
The Candy Kid -- as George Morgan was known after his first hit "Candy Kisses" spent three weeks at the top of the country chart -- was a grand country crooner in the tradition of Eddy Arnold, whom he replaced on the Grand Old Opry in 1948. Born in Waverly, TN, on June 28, 1924, Morgan and his family moved to Ohio not long after. He grew up... [+] Read More
Artist: Slippery Nipple

Artist: Murphy Blend
Murphy Blend, from Berlin, Germany, was another of the many bands that were around only long enough to release one record and then vanish into the nether of rock obscurity. Their one album, First Loss, from 1971 is considered one of the classics of Teutonic heavy rock, and though it relied on some influences by British heavy rock bands like Deep... [+] Read More
Artist: Wasps
The Wasps are a classic "here today, gone tomorrow" band of Britain's 1977 punk wave, occupying a nether region alongside second-stringers like the Cortinas, Drones, and Suburban Studs. The quartet managed just two singles and two compilation track appearances during its abbreviated lifetime. What's more, they lacked a central London address to... [+] Read More
Artist: Pestilence
Holland's Pestilence is generally regarded as one of the leaders of the late-'80s/early-'90s death metal scene, following closely behind Death as innovators in the genre. Combining elements of Slayer, Celtic Frost, Venom, and the Possessed, Pestilence was an underappreciated and short-lived outfit that, along with peers Sepultura, Atheist, and... [+] Read More
Artist: Dan Fogelberg
If James Taylor epitomized the definition and the original, late-'60s incarnation of the term singer/songwriter, Dan Fogelberg exemplified the late-'70s equivalent of that term at its most highly developed and successful, with a string of platinum-selling albums and singles into the early '80s and a long career since, interrupted only by a...
