Deja Vu
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
I know and love this album well, but I'm always struck by the vocal harmonies of CSN/CSNY, and this album is a great example.

School's Out
Alice Cooper
Better than I was expecting. The only song I was familiar with was the title track, which got radio play in the 70s. Blue Turk was a nice surprise.

Horses
Patti Smith
My go-to Patti Smith albums for enjoyable listening are Wave and Gone Again; Horses was new to me and I found it a harder listen. It's just so raw, so visceral. Which is true of the albums I know as well, and maybe it's just a result of being better acquainted with them idk, but Horses was a less melodic listen somehow. Ultimately, like others have said Patti is more edgy poet than musician, especially here, and some level of discomfort is perhaps the point.
The standout tracks for me were Free Money and Birdland. I'll definitely listen to this one again.

Arc Of A Diver
Steve Winwood
Hey, late 70s/early 80s was my era, so I don't hate the 80s sound like so many of the reviewers here. Still, this probably doesn't quite manage a 3.5 for me, despite the comforting familiarity of While You See a Chance, Arc of a Diver and Night Train.

Simply Red
The Talking Heads cover (Heaven) just doesn't approach David Byrne's tongue-in-cheek delivery, and frankly doesn't work for me, but overall it's a nice album. Anyone not moved by Holding Back the Years simply has no soul, in my opinion.
