I think, the only album I have heard up there is the ELO... and I wouldn't vote for it.

Bowie > ELO > Billy Joel. Whatever the yellow dustbin says, the atmosphere does.

from 1994.

I'm not sure you've seen this post, Paul, as you haven't thanked for it. Smile

The Stanglers although I've not heard much on this list. Get A Grip and Hanging Around are tracks I just can't hear enough times.
