Many Odysseys

Four bands, one name (well, one and a bit).

We start with the best known of the bunch, who had a string of hits in the 1970s and 1980s; the second lot put out an album on a Motown subsidiary in 1972, from which this track comes; the third were from New York and released this Janis Ian cover the year before; and we end with the great James Blood Ulmer and pals larking about in 2005.

"Don't Tell Me, Tell Her" - Odyssey

"Battened Ships" - Odyssey

"Society's Child" - Odyssey

"Happy Time" - Odyssey The Band

Vote for your favourite Odyssey now! I don't wish to be accused of trying to manipulate the result, but my money is on the one from the Philippines, seen here rocking Calamba City back in 2013.

    1. I don't usually side with winning teams (where's the fun in that?) but I too vote for track 3.
