Have you ever loved something, only to realize it’s a commercial flop or just obscure? What’s something that deserves more light than it got?

I've come to appreciate that guy and how hard all of that actually is and should probably listen to more. He did a "Peter and the Wolf" back in ancient times that was seriously great, peerless listening for a kiddo I'd say.
Did you watch the silly biopic? Daniel Radcliffe? Can't remember the name. I tried like 3 different times :( it was so over the top Weird Al that I couldn't fault it for being flat out him AF, but I also just could not finish it lol.
My only other comment in this thread (so far) is singing the virtues of a movie called "Freddy Got Fingered", so. Maybe it's me lol.
I wish that album were still in print. You can easily "acquire" a digital copy, but it would be nice to own the physical record.
A great collab with Wendy Carlos.
