CHIMERA
Marking my fourth year of Facebook posts on Under-Appreciated Rock Bands and Under-Appreciated Rock Artists (I have last month’s band, Chimera on as I write), I began to appreciate that there is a lot of good information here that needed more exposure. As I suppose most of you know by now, I write about much more than just a rock band that hardly anyone has ever heard of; for instance, in November, I started off Part 2 of “Women in Rock” with a piece on the 1970’s cartoon show, Josie and the Pussycats.
Thus, I launched a website on Google Sites and put all of my previous posts on the regular Internet. Here is the URL: . My Facebook friends get first crack at the new posts; I don’t put anything on the website until the next month.

I play the albums by the UARA’s and UARB’s frequently and am always struck by how great they sound. With few if any exceptions, they aren’t just another hard rock band or garage rock band or folk/rock artist – they have a distinct sound that I simply love. For many – such as Beast (whose first album is playing now), the Not Quite, the Ugly, the Unknowns, Chimera, and Thomas Anderson, to name a few – they don’t sound like anyone else that I am familiar with.
