Poco was a pretty good yacht rock band. Who can forget the beautiful harmonies of "Crazy Love" or that slide guitar on "Heart Of The Night". If you really want to know of an underrated band, how about Boston...I guess it's been such a long time.
I saw what you did there. LOL
35% UFO is one of the most underrated bands ever in the hard rock category. Their late 70's - 80's albums were outstanding.

74%. Rainbow= who?, Are you kidding me. Ritchie Blackmore was a premier Guitarist!.
.....and with Ronnie James Dio on vocals.
Ah ya definitely, Man on the silver mountain..so good.
The people who did not know Rainbow and Montrose must be living in a cave somewhere. Rainbow with Richie Blackmore and Ronnie James Dio. Montrose was Sammy Hagars first band.
So agree dude
41% said poco was..."who?"...wow...

I've seen 9 of these groups in concerts. I'm old and have been to a ton of concerts!
I've seen four of them. If you saw Wishbone Ash or Little Feat, I envy you.

72% Who? Was my most frequent answer.
59% similar... probably because many people who'd never heard of a particular band like Montrose or Little Feat chose "Who?"... That's understandable,m especially if they were either not of that generation or not into the bands of the 1970s.
It would be like me giving a overrated/underrated/who? quiz on Sun Records rockabilly music. You might know Elvis or Jerry Lee Lewis, but perhaps Sonny Burgess, Billy Lee Riley, Carl Mann or Charlie Feathers might rate a "Who?" as well...
