[QUOTE=bada bing;1960585]My college days were in Indiana circa 1980. There were a couple good local bands that *almost* had their breakthrough. From Indianapolis - Roadmaster:

Big Flashback! My brother had that Starcastle album. Never remember listening to it however.

A band I loved in college. Started local in the Boston Area. I think they had some play nation wide, but am not sure.
Pousette Dart Band

Sopwith Camel
The Miraculous Hump Returns From The Moon - Fazon - 1973
A great band from San Francisco with a short life - they were one of the first SF bands with a big hit in a time of wonderful music. If you've never heard them before - enjoy!

+1 Frozen Pines is one of my favorite songs of all time.
In a sometimes similar vein, here is a band from my little Canadian hometown...

I'm not sure if she's too popular to qualify for this thread, but how about Grace Potter and the Nocturnals? Most of my friends who are into mainstream/radio music don't know who she is.

I remember Sopwith Camel's hit, "Hello, Hello." It was kind of vaudevillian in nature ... this is totally different.

Love the "Uruguayan Invasion." You're right, they have that "Beatles '65" sound down.

I remember seeing Starcastle in the mid 70s in Macomb, ILL. Home of the WIU Leathernecks. They reminded us of a poor man's YES.
Another popular college band - Clicker. They were out of Wisconsin.

I recall another Midwestern '70s band that had a following in the Tri-state (Illinois-Wisconsin-Iowa) region, The ... Vers. I believe they came out of Wisconsin/Illinois stateline area about the same time Cheap Trick was making a splash. The band was a great live act -- the frontman was a frenetic 6-foot-7 and the lead guitarist had cut his hair and trimmed his eyebrows to look like Mr. Spock. They had a standing date at some bar in Madison, the name of which I forget, and fans used to put bumper stickers on University Drive street signs so they read UniVERSity Drive.
Here's a primitive video of the band from a TV station somewhere in Iowa.

I went to a Styx concert 41 years ago this week and if I remember correctly Starcastle was the opening act.
