Top 15 albums that should be considered classics(but for some reason aren't?!?!)

#5 XYZ..
Hungry
XYZ was a band of nothing but talent,and raw energy- but at the time this album was released, they were already being written off by some as clones of Dokken, but one listen to this amazing album would soon dispell that myth. Hungry starts off with the sleazy and raw "Face down in the Gutter", and ventures a little deeper lyrically with "Off to the Sun", and "The Sun Also Rises in Hell". The only thing Dokken here was the myth, and the fact that Don Dokken produced their first album.
Starting off as the defacto house band of The Whiskey-a-go-go, XYZ soon forged their own distinct sound, and Terry Ilous soon set himself apart as one of the great singers of the era. 1991 saw the end of XYZ's most famous line-up, and as most of the bands of the 80's, they went off quietly into the sun, releasing only one more album 12 years later. One of my favorites- "Face Down in the Gutter"


and of course, the video for the song they are most famous for..."Inside Out"..
