Not necessarily my favorite bands by any stretch, but I'll toss in a couple late 80's acts that, while a bit poppish, still kicked ass and I would have liked to have heard more from them:

Asia and GTR

Rhinoceros
Blind Faith
Bloodline

Moby Grape and Barefoot Jerry

Those were both good bands. One a spin off of the other. Kind of super bands. Definitely 80s pop as you said but I really liked them. I think Steve Howe was in both of them but I could be wrong. Hackett was in one.

Sarah Swain
McGuinn,Clark and Hillman

Cream, Arc Angels, Scream' Cheetah Whelelies

Captain Beyond
CSNY maybe?

Derek & the Dominos.

West Bruce & Laing
Sea Level
David Johansen & the Harry Smiths

Tommy Bolin, hands down.

I'm not a major fan of Boston, but it is hard to believe that a band whose first album was so big (and still gets airplay today) did so little after it.

Similarly, Guns'n'Roses!!!!

Mick Taylor, one of my favorite guitarists, only has two solo albums, one from 1979 and one from like 1999.

Two bands that I really do love that short-changed us are Big Star and Uncle Tupelo.

Big Star put out 3 albums in the 1970s and then a 4th, a comeback album of sorts, in the early 2000s. I really like the live reunion-ish album that they did in 1993.

Uncle Tupelo had I think 4 albums - "Still Feel Gone," "No Depression," "March 16-20, 1992," and "Anodyne" - before breaking up. I think "Anodyne" is my favorite. I cannot be too unhappy that they broke up, because their break-up lead to the formation of Wilco, who I prefer.

There is a side-group that has a bunch of the alt-country guys and some like-minded pals (from bands like Jayhawks, Wilco, Soul Asylum) called "Golden Smog," and I think they only had 4 albums.

Muleskinner is a little more obscure but the music on the records of those two short-lived bands -- country-bluegrass oriented stuff -- is very popular today -- Seatrain is another...........

Derek and the Dominoes

I believe Steve Howe was in Asia and Hacektt was in GTR...

Howe was in both.

Hackett was in GTR only.

Jane's, man oh man, they folded up the tents just in time after their 3rd album, Ritual. Love them. Seeing them on the Nothings Shocking Tour at the Uptown Lounge in Athens Fall 88 / Spring 89 was a much anticipated mind blower for our crew (place held 200-250?). '90 Ritual at ATL Center Stage in front of 1k ($15 tix, peeps were offering $100 outside the show that nite), then my last on the first/ 91 Lolla at Lakewood in ATL (final song Chip Away, with all the drums and drummers from the other bands pounding away... I Chip Away!!!!!! cuz I'm not OK!!!!) Helluva an ending to my run seeing them live, and i walked out of there that night saying i was satisfied with never seeing them again, even though it was sad knowing they were done. i got all i needed, and then some.

Porno for Pyros paled in comparison to me and my band of brothers. just not the same intensity. and the re-union stuff, ugh. glad more peeps got to see a Jane's show, but Navarro turned into a lil' prima-donna biatch after the Carmen Electta error / era... glad he cleaned up and is still with us, but man, he's a wanker these daze.

just put on Stop, crank it to 11, and feel the power of Perry and the boys...

I listen to the couple or three records Lush did when the shoegazing mood strikes. Very cool sound, Rickenbacker electric 12 string heaven.
