By this I mean album songs that NEVER appear on compilations and NEVER get played on the radio. And by popular artists I mean POPULAR artists not obscure RIO, avantgarde, fusion and jazz that hardly anyone has heard of.
I was inspired to this when I was listening the other night to "Johnny Was" on Bob Marley's album "Rastaman Vibration". I'd completely forgotten about the song myself & then reflected that I've never seen it on a Bob Marley or a reggae compilation & the only time I've ever heard it is on my own vinyl copy!
It is a soft, beautiful, touching song but it is isn't the standard Marley drum heavy, beat heavy reggae so that is why I think it is never on compos or played on the radio, it isn't what people expect.
BTW, what's the new code for imbedding from youtube? [yt] [/yt] doesn't work anymore.
