If I were to name something under-rated by Adams it would be the whole "Into the Fire" album, particularly Heat of the Night.

Let's see what else I can come up with:

AC/DC - Flick of the Switch album, particularly "Rising Power"

Chain of Fools - Aretha
Hurricane - Dylan
Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out - Springsteen
Maybe Baby - Buddy Holly
Half-Breed - Cher
Chris de Burgh's whole "Spanish Train" albums, especially the title track.
Industrial Disease - Dire Straits (I remember as a kid, I'd do my homework to a tiny transister radio - when this was a hit, I'd spend more time turning the dial trying to find it than actually doing homework)

I'm a HUGE Don Henley fan, so I could do a whole list of underappreciated songs, but I'll put "A Month of Sundays" at the top of the heap.

I never, ever, ever have heard "In the Ghetto" by Presley on the radio. I have that in my "30 Star Songs" playlist. But that's the kind of stuff that my mother would play when I was a kid...

Say You Will - Foreigner
December, 1963 - Frankie Valli
Heartless - Heart
Gimme Some Truth - Lennon
Rain on the Scarecrow - Mellencamp (another in the 30 stars playlist)

Zepplin's whole Presence album, particularly "Achilles Last Stand".

I Don't Care Anymore - Phil Collins
I also don't hear "Against All Odds" on the radio anymore....
Brass in Pocket - Pretenders

Everything R.E.M. did before "Automatic for the People".

Rock and a Hard Place - Stones
Famine, Black Boys on Mopeds - Sinead
God Part II - U2
