Fav Album hardly anyone has heard

Both Albums by Twenty one Pilots, Vessel and a self titled one. Honestly the first band whose lyrics have connected to me personally and their live show is absolutely Killer. Their music is really weird and has very heavy keyboards and the drummer is really good.

 
Gino Vanelli - Yonder Tree - very jazzy, fabulous lyrics, production, songwriting, the entire package - phenomenal album.

Genesis - Wind and Wuthering - the first album after Gabriel left, it has some of Genesis VERY best material (Eleventh Earl of mar, One for the Vine, Blood on the Rooftops) it is strangely overlooked!

kd lang - Ingenue - other than the hit "Constant Craving," this album is magnificent. We know the vox are flawless and intimate, but the songwriting - with Ben Mink's thoughtful input - is superb.

Queen - Sheer Heart Attack - IMHO their best work from the proto-metal "Stone Cold Crazy" to "Now I'm Here" and John Deacon's first colo controbution "Misfire" - this album, apart from teh hit "Killer Queen" isn't nearly as well known as it should be, probably bc it was followed by "A Night at the Opera" which seems to define Queen's catalog. AWESOME album.
 
The Kitchens of Distinction - All of thier albums are great, but 'The Death of Cool' is a particularly great album.

Big Big Train - Their 2 latest releases, the Underfall Yard and English Electric, Part 1, with new singer David Longdon are fantastic. Any fans of old Genesis from the Gabriel to early Collins days (when they were still more of a progressive outfit) will appreciate these albums.
