Which band or musician do you feel suffered from over-saturation / overexposure that people should give a fresh listen to now?

I’ve been listening to some of Frampton’s earlier studio albums and his work in Humble Pie, and it’s a plain shame that his career was essentially derailed by his greatest success, which was that live album. He’s got some really great records out there that I think are being overlooked due to how completely overexposed he was in 1976 and his management’s insistence on rushing him into other ill-fated projects to capitalize on it.

Is there anyone else out there who you believe deserves a second listen after they suffered in the long run as a result of getting so much exposure that people grew weary of them?

I may need to revisit them, because they were definitely a band that I got tired of hearing about quickly. Plus, their smarmy attitude really turned me off to the point that I don’t think I ever really gave their music a full chance. Now that 20+ years have passed, maybe it’s time. @SmartKat
