Pre-10CC records that are amazing.

Now I can't name a single 10CC song other than "Dreadlock Holiday", nor do I want to, but before their great breakout they were studio hacks and one-hit wonders par excellence. They also made some great records, such as:

The Mindbenders -Groovy Kind of Love
Great mid/late 60s freakbeat workout.

Hotlegs - Neanderthal Man
Perfectly primitive punk-glam novelty hit that's begging for the noise-rock (or disco re-edit) treatment.

Ramases - Life Child (from "Space Hymns")
The 10CC folk only played session on this record, and they're clearly far too mediocre as individuals to make something this wacked out. Awesome early-70s heavy prog/psych on Vertigo, get the full album here.
