This isn't what I'd call rare but I'm going to give it a mention because it was never a hit in the UK and bloody well should have been.
'Alone Again Or' by Love. Awesome tune. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuU1fYUMb5s

Although The Damned did an ok cover in the 80s which did chart. I'm an 80s man at heart but I have to say that Love's version will never be beaten.
the other two was 67 and 68 respectively but sabre dance was a top 20 hit ...
I have to agree with marlman, "21st Century Schizoid Man" was definitely 1969 - it just sounds more seventies than sixties.
"Sabre Dance" actually made the top five, but to be fair to marlman it doesn't get a lot of plays today (unfortunately) so it doesn't really seem that out of place on this thread.

fair play , i stand corrected
i found it in my catalogue, and that says " 76 ISLAND WIP 6274 21st centuary schizoid man / epitaph " (worth £25 too in 2000, lol)

not bothered guys.... i can overlook bad lyrics if the tracks good, but i simply have a strong dislike for it! but im not much of a doo-wop fan anyway.
i took a liberty there just to replace a track id already featured (it was a re release).
quite a classy act.... (apart from doe...lol)
we have a major artist coming up soon, which will take a whole week (my 4 days) to post... this is ok if you like the artist/style, tough luck if you dont!

i have to say... i HATE duke of earl? wtf is a duke of earl? it makes absolutely no sense and sounds like someone doesnt understand british heirarchy.
ps...is it sacrilege to suggest i prefer 'get down' to his 60's material?...
I love "Duke Of Earl". Who cares if the lyrics make no sense, it's a doo-wop classic. "Rainbow" is a great track too, though more soul than doo-wop.
I hate "Get Down" and all Disco music for that matter.
Each to his own.
Sorry Rob, but I agree 100% with Johnny.
