English band Blyth Power. Check out their superb compilation "Ten Years Inside The Horse" with such great songs The Guns Of Castle Cary, Inside The Horse, and Animal Farm.

Attila the Stockbroker? I seem to remember a gem of his entitled 'Cocktails'. I think it was on a Cherry Red compilation...

American singer/songwriter recommended by Val Henshaw a couple of years ago. He's only made one album so far ; Dead Language (2006) but is said to be working on his second.

Birdland

The only album proper by very promising cusp-of-the80s/90s Brummie peroxide pudding bowl glam/punk/pop combo. Great guitar sound.

Paul Burch:
I first saw Paul Burch supporting Ralph Stanley - an occasion when turning up in time for the support was not just a duty, not just a pleasure, but a revelation.

Johnny Bee says:
Cruel Words is a fine album, as is Wake up the Snakes (playing it now). And for under £4......It's just 'A Drunkards Masterpiece' and 'No Regrets' that don't quite do it for me, although, again, they have their moments, and I admire his integrity in putting out what he wants to.

I picked up Cruel Words cheap - much better stuff.

How about Wake Up The Snakes - £2.60 + p&p new? Any good?

Johnny Bee says:
BN - agreed, it's nowhere near his best. Although I do like 'Betty' and a couple of other tracks. However, given that his first few albums are quite expensive, any of the following would be a better starting point:

Wrong Side of Memphis
The Pawnbroker's Wife
Cemetery Shoes

How many times have you played No Regrets JB? I've managed once so far and I've had it a good couple of weeks. Meh.

Johnny Bee says:
Johnny Dowd - gothic alt country (I guess) - although he uses ancient electronica - with jet black humour. Started out in his 50s and has released around a dozen albums to date.

'Betty' from his recent album No Regrets :

Dunno about 'few people' knowing but two bands I love that are definitely underrated (and short-lived) were Big Star and Jellyfish.

Pipped to the post there, Baldman - that's you, me and Sera69. We're getting there! I've been putting him on the voting threads when suitable and he's had a few votes.
I think his latest is probably his best.

On This Dark Street

I wish he'd tour over here.

Lewis Taylor-thankfully back in music now directing and playing bass behind the scene for Cee-Lo Green under name of Andrew Taylor (I believe). Probably the most underrated musical talent I think few people have heard of which is a great shame.
