Euphoria by School of Fish

Up until now, all of my song postings have been from either the 60s or 70s. Back a short while ago, I had a few shows on a radio station every week. One was exactly for this -- underrated songs and the other was for 90s music. The next song fits both of the categories.

School of Fish only existed for a handful of years, producing a few albums, but their 1991 self-titled debut proved to be fairly solid. In fact, they did have a minor hit on MTV in 1991 entitled Three Strange Days. Not much else is known to the general public about the band, except two of the members went on to play with Jakob Dylan (Bob Dylan's son) in The Wallflowers. Unfortunately, the lead singer of School of Fish passed away from Testicular Cancer in 2000 at the age of 32.

Euphoria is a great five minute ballad. Why it is not more well known is beyond me.
