Hucker Du - New Day Rising
What? No. While punk is probably my 2nd favorite genre of music I didn't like this. I get they were early on, but the songs sounded so like the previous one. They were all fast with basically the same drum beat. Spin also rated this in their Top 100 greatest albums from 1985-2005. It was a painfully long 15 songs.

Cyndi Lauper - She's So Unusual
I owned this. Release in 1983 it was one of the best selling albums of the 80's. It peaked at #4 and was on the charts for 65 weeks. A novice on early music might find it surprising that this album was higher on the charts then Kiss - Destroyer. It sold double what Destroyer did! 4 Great hits came off this album. Cool fact: When you Were Mine was written by Prince. Annie Leibovitz took the cover photo. Listen to: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, When You Were Mine, Time after Time, She Bop, and All through the Night.
