That's pretty depressing, Ringhio. Assuming you like those three, I bet there are tons more that you would like if you gave them a chance.

[Richard]

The Band are not talked about enough! For all the praise they get they always seem underappreciated.

Ophelia
I'm Ready
When You Awake
Kind Harvest (Has Surely Come)
Caledonia Mission
In A Station
The Shape I'm In
Sleeping
Across The Great Divide
To A Kingdom Come

[RinghioStarr]

That's pretty depressing, Ringhio. Assuming you like those three, I bet there are tons more that you would like if you gave them a chance.

Can you name a few?

Not Rag Mama Rag and such, possibly.

[BlueChair]

Not a country fan I guess.

Start with "Unfaithful Servant" and "Stage Fright" and see how those go

[Fishfinger king]

Chest fever
I don't want to hang up my rock'n'roll shoes

Orange juice blues
Don't do it
Across the great divide
Time to kill

Five years late to this one yet over forty five some years of active listening and do not mind following Wardo:

13 [I Don't Want To] Hang Up My Rock and Roll Shoes

Yes- most definitely my favorite American band - there is a freshness to their material that never goes stale or sounds dated. And I appreciate the symmetry as this is my 1955 post and also my birth year and my favorite Band.
