The Stranger
Billy Joel
Not for me. Was never that keen on the singles when they charted, and those were the highlights of this album.

Born In The U.S.A.
Bruce Springsteen
Still enjoyed it after many years away from it. Can sit all the way through without intervention which is unusual for me. Only thing is, and I have thought this about other more recent Springsteen records, is the sound seems a tad "rough" to me. Maybe it is meant to be like that, or maybe it is just my hearing letting me down. Still a solid 4/5 anyway.
