Not feeling well? Stomach a little queasy? You’ve come to the right place.

Grab an airsickness bag and get ready to party.



Better?

This is a 60s underground garage classic fueled by acid and fuzz guitars. Somehow it never made it into the charts, not sure why? wink

Yeah, totally confusing as to why this didn't have massive success. It rocks, and the lyrics are timeless. wink

I’m sure I must’ve heard that on the old Dr. Demento radio show.

I don't think this band ever had a hit single on the Billboard Top Whatever.....despite that fact.....they are one of my very favorite contemporary rocknroll bands....

Just a taste....of what is hidden on their 7 studio albums...

And who can forget The Minutmen.....Double-nickels on the dime is one of my favorite double disc abums ever....






I have to restrain myself so not to make this thread mine....

Besides "Puttin' on the Ritz", how can one not like "Tribute to Tino"?

I wouldn't call Lou Reed a no hit wonder, but this one didn't chart.

I could never get past the feeling I was wandering through the Giza pyramids when listening to the Tribute to Tino. I preferred the tribute to Fred and Ginger with “Cheek to Cheek”.

I think the greatest American "no hit" band has to be The Grateful Dead. "Touch of Grey" was probably their closest thing to a hit they ever had and it came 22 or so years into their career. However, their success as an underground band via essentially word of mouth and endless touring has yet to be repeated.

The greatest punk song you've never heard:



I love this song. It's the sorta song you start a football game with. Or a riot.

I got excited seeing a post by Rocky, then realized it was from a year ago.


I hope he is OK. Haven't seen him post in a good while. A few years ago I ran in to him on another board. I directed him here to get back with old friends. On the old boards he was Conndawg.

I miss his humor. Again, hope he is OK.

Really? I only heard Stairway to Heaven about 4 times a hour back in the day. That didn't chart top 5, let alone top 10?
Posted By: WooferDawg Re: No hit wonders - 07/21/20 04:41 PM
Topped at Number 22 according to Billboard.
Posted By: YTownBrownsFan Re: No hit wonders - 07/21/20 10:23 PM
For a very long time, it seemed to me like it was Stairway to Heaven .... Freebird ....... 2 other songs ..... Stairway to Heaven .... Freebird ....... 2 other songs ..... Stairway to Heaven .... Freebird ....... 2 other songs ..... Stairway to Heaven .... Freebird ....... 2 other songs .....
Posted By: FATE Re: No hit wonders - 07/22/20 12:19 AM
... and the two other songs were Hotel California and Rock 'n Roll All Night.
