Serge Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) There's an unbelievable back catalogue of top tracks by top artists out there that deserve a bigger audience. They're tucked away on Albums and if you don't have that album you will never hear it... Here's a couple for starters - Post your favourites.....

The live version on Alchemy is just outstanding. I'm pretty sure it was released as a single though, so thats why i didn't mention it.

Vlad Magic Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Deserve far more credit for this also from Brothers in Arms. There we’re so many strong songs on the album this is mostly overlooked. A real shame as it’s a beauty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott herbertson Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Great and epic fun track with a Spaghetti western spoof story some terrific guitar - what's not to like ! Another great epic track - this time about the Kennedy assassination. Saw this live in Edinburgh at Clouds i think in about 1979.
