I always remember PFunk being cut out, and then in the 90's copies going for $50-100.

Girl were in a class of their own imho!
Sheer Greed is a fantastic and very overlooked album.
Saw em support KISS at Stafford Bingley Hall in 1980 and they lasted about 3 songs before departing!
Thet got showered in a hail of gob and beer, that most punk gigs never saw the likes of!
I was well pissed off as i was looking forward to seeing em!
Hail Pat Travers too!
S/T, Makin Magic, Go For What You Know,Puttin It Straight are all great albums!
Very underrated as a guitarist too.
Check out "Stevie" and Rock "N" Roll Susie!

Too right, Paz.
Let's not forget hair-metal heroes Shy and their bang-bang version of Cliff's Devil Woman.

Um, Kansas (& Styx I think) had been around for years by the time of the NWOBHM etc. Kansas were definitely prog for their first several albums. Styx slightly less so from the little I've heard.
Boston just weren't proggy, they were just melodic hard rock (possibly inventing aor, along with Journey). The odd keyboard intro doesn't make it prog!!! Lol!

Ahh, but Budgie did have a "NWOBHM phase"!
"Power Supply" and the "Do Not Induce Vomitting" EP -- these sound nothing like their early "classic metal" albums!
(Sadly their last couple albums added synths and sound like bad Rush.)
