Love the Kinks album track wise but hate most of the commercial stuff, can't do with the best of the Kinks stuff!
Sham 69 I loved but unfortunately the dicks that followed them caused em to pack in!

I think there's two versions of Sham 69 still gigging .

My choice for underrated band goes to Puressence .Just missed the Madchester scene but they were tipped to be the next stadium band after Radiohead . They even flirted with the charts with a couple of singles off the first couple of albums but never got the that elusive break through they deserved imo . There still going strong and are great live and there first two albums Puressence & Only Forever are worth checking out if you like your Indie rock.

Should also mention that Great White have (probably had now that Jack's gone) an alter ego as an amazing Led Zep cover band, plenty of examples on the usual site

Rumour has it they've reconciled their diffences. I hope so, because I saw the Pursey led group and they were dire.

The Lightning Seeds. Some very good tunes away from the commercial stuff, and Ian Broudie was a great songwriter!
