I haven't thought of the ones I know as underrated -- don't get as much attention as various other names commonly. So underrecognised by many perhaps, but I have seen considerable recongition and respect for various of these in my time at PA. Eruption is overshadowed by Hamburger Concerto. I love both.

I guess I can get who some might not like "Aumg" and thus hold it in lower regard than I would. I will give the excellent "Mumps" a vote regardless of its status.

Banco, obviously. One of my top songs.

Non mi svegliate ve ne prego
ma lasciate che io dorma questo sonno,
c'è ancora tempo per il giorno
quando gli occhi si imbevono di pianto,
i miei occhi... di pianto.

Focus - Eruption ( I don't think The Nice - Rondo is a an 'epic' in any way shape or form , only Five Bridges Suite and Ars Longa Vita Brevis would count under the much used 15 minute rule, Rondo doesn't even make it to 10 minutes on the Emerlist Davjack debut and although it's longer on the posthumous release Elegy, still not an epic though)
