More good ones from 87

Suzanne Vega--Solitude Standing (although I could go a lifetime without hearing Tom's Diner again)

Roger Waters--Radio K.A.O.S. (classic Waters)

Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D'Arby (the dude tanked after this but this album was really good)

Sting--Nothing Like the Sun (his best in my opinion)

The Bodeans--Outside Looking In (still listen to this band all the time)
