My God, they are fantastic. But are they underrated? Not sure actually. In ways, they are. Every so often you'll hear them mentioned. | |

Randy Muller is another who comes to mind. The brainchild behind BT Express, Brass Construction and Skyy. Much props and respect. [Edited 4/7/21 13:51pm] | |

Bloodstone? Never heard of them. Sure you have  in 1973,they had a major hit with the smooth,mesmerizing slow jam “Natural High”.10 years later,in 1983,they had another smooth slow jam,”We Go A Long Way Back”. | |

Leon Sylvers III is another ultimate I must mention. He certainly gave the Los Angeles Black music scene an identifiable sound with SOLAR back in the late 1970s to the early 1980s. A sound that definitely stood out from the rest. | |

A sound that definitely stood out from the rest. i dont think Leon Sylvers III was underrated though...hes pretty much widely acknowledged as one of the greatest bass players and songwriter/producers of his era...even by his peers... |

To me, Sylvers being acknowledged as such came much later within the Rap and sampling eras. Even back in the day, Sylvers was never quite mentioned enough as his contemporaries.
