Roxy Music had hits. That's not underrated. Roxy Music gave us Brian Ferry and BRIAN mofo ENO. Eno invented ambient music to improve the airport experience -- in other words, he invented an entire GENRE of music that is still active as a solution to a simple problem. You want underrated from that era, maybe a touch later? MX-80 Sound. Let's talk about how much Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti is a Snakefinger tribute band. Heck, let's give a big shout-out to the Blasters -- without the Alvin Brothers, there never would've been a rockabilly revival in 1983 and again in 1994.
