Can we start with an ever-overdue tribute to the ever-underappreciated Je Suis France - who named their 16 minute (!) opening (!) song on Afrikan Majik (?) after a riff on a song by an obscure 70's sub-supergroup's opening song? Those guys still rule.
Captain Beyond rules too - the perfect obscure band to fetishize. A mishmash of Iron Butterfly / Deep Purple / [etc] castoffs, some of whom got fired --- ? --- fucking, I can't be expected to parse that halfassed piece of wikipedia. I got a day job.
