The Misunderstood

Little did I know that Riverside, a town about 40 miles away from where I sit, was home to The Misunderstood, an extremely underrated band from the 1960s. Their name suits them well. I hadn't even heard of them until today when I came across their music by complete accident.

They formed in 1963, and then relocated to London, where they recorded the album Before The Dream Faded in 1966, which didn't see the light of day until 1982. I have not come across any information as to why it took 16 years for that album to surface, but if anyone knows, please let me know.

From what I have heard so far, my favorite song is "Who's Been Talking".

You can stream "Who's Been Talking" and many other tracks by The Misunderstood here.
