That is a good call. I always wanted to hear the rest of that blistering Howe solo which starts on the fade-out too!

Allot of the songs of the Tool album Salival. Since it was just a promo, not many people have heard some of the great tracks on it.

I'll second the Losing it, not the Countdown.  Here's one of my favorite songs from Rush that seems to be underrated....

Most of ELP's Tarkus side 2 i.e. Bitches Crystal, A Time and a Place, Infiite Space, the Only Way. All great tracks in my view.

I believe it's overlooked by fans, hardly ever read a comment about it, and IMO is a great track.

I love Hoedown. ELP did so many different versions and started playing it in America as a bit of a nod to a famous American composer (Copeland) before they recorded it for the Trilogy album. My favourite version is on Welcome Back My Friends played at breakneck speed but still with plenty of accuracy.

Two Jethro tull favourites -
 
from Stormwatch (1979). It's like Jethro Tull's "After The Ordeal".
 
 
From Warchild (1974) Is this overlooked? Very cool song anyhow.
