R&P, how obscure can you get?!
Question: R&P, how obscure can you get!?
I'm looking for bands from the 70's and 80's that weren't the Stones or Led Zeppelin!. Name the band and a song they did!. Hard Rock, Glam, and Metal, please!. No pop, no rap!.
An easy example would be Nazareth---"Hair of the Dog"Www@Enter-QA@Com

Saraya are pretty obscure!. Talk about a mismarketed band!. They were lumped in with the 80s hair bands, and it killed their career!.
The video for their biggest hit is linked below!. Look and listen to them!. They're nowhere near a hair metal band!. They're cut from the same cloth as the Black Crowes or Melissa Etheridge, only a little edgier!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
