Ep. 131: Forgotten Fossils - Classic Rock In The Alternative Age

Episode Summary

Something unique happened in the 90s with “Classic Rock” radio where they completely omitted any new contributions musically from the bands. In the 90’s, the “Legacy Act” tag hadn’t hit yet and bands were still trying to be true to themselves, but still be relevant. This week we play the Lost and Forgotten songs released during the Alternative Rock era from bands that we all know and love. The More You Know...

What’s this InObscuria thing? We’re a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. Many of the classic 60s-70s bands were still writing and delivering new musical content into the 90s. Go and check out these songs and the albums that they come from! 

Songs this week include:

  1. Cheap Trick – “Yeah Yeah” from Cheap Trick (1997)
  2. Procol Harum – “Man With A Mission” from The Prodigal Stranger (1991)
  3. Heart – “Oldest Story In The World” from Jupiter’s Darling (2004)
  4. The Kinks  – “It’s Alright (Don’t Think About It)” from Phobia (1993)
  5. RTZ – “Another Time” from Return To Zero (1991)
