Nearly every song on Stones' Satanic Majesty's album that was not any kind of hit.

I like the obscure songs on Between The Buttons.

Firth of Fifth from "Selling England By The Pound." by Genesis. I used to skip it until I realised just how fucking smart it was lyrically and as a composition. Possibly the finest point of their career both album and song.

Honestly, check it out.



Also "Echidna's Arf/ Don't you ever Wash that Thing". From Zappa's Roxy in Elsewhere I used to avoid, however it's now amongst my favourite pieces.

No utube. :sadcheer:

"Stand" by REM, from "Green". Not a normal album track in the sense that it was a well-known single, but it's the worst track on the album by far, IMHO.
