DEEP CUTS

VA - Deep Cuts in Rock Vol. 05 (A Butterboy Compilation) Once More CD1+CD2+CD3

Deciding what is a "deep cut" can be a difficult task and the choices often live in a  grey area. For this compilation a deep cut usually refers to Non singles (B-sides are accepted), provided exposure of that song tends to be underplayed and are generally older songs. These deep cuts can also be album cuts that hide amoungst the great hits and B-sides. Those non-singles on the album that are sometimes more loved than the hits. Usually fans who are really into the artist will know some of the tracks but this is probably not true to the casual listener. Deep cuts are truly often overlooked. These are the tracks you are unlikely to hear on the radio, certainly, not often. Every great artist has some great deep cuts in their catalog, some many more than others. Finding that rare gem in an artist's catalog always excites.

Obviously there are hundreds of great tracks that could be included in a Deep Cuts compilation. 

Here is Volume 05 of  6 volumes (each 3 x CD sets), mostly obscure rock tracks or tracks that you simply don't hear all that often.  Enjoy!

    1. Thanks hotrodmike.
      I think they make for a good listening experience when you don't know what to play. There are always some tracks that escape the memories and therefore always delight when heard again.

      Cheers.

  6. A selection like this has, by its very nature, to be very subjective. Your background in a wide range of musical eras and genres means that when you gesture us over and say, "Hey - give a listen to _this_!", it's worth our time and open minds to grab the headphones and hearken. Cheers!

    1. Hi MT2mb,
      I hope it worth the listeners time. And, yes, they are subjective but many tracks just have to be heard a few times. These one usually grab me in. I go back to these from time to time and enjoy them again and again.

      Cheers.
