Wha? These were "criminally underappreciated"? I think Sweet did pretty well 
by "Girlfriend," didn't he? And that friggin Femmes album, or at least 
"Blister of the Sun" and a couple others, has taken on so much of a life of 
its own on Modern Rock/80s radio that it's impossible to listen to nowadays. 
Besides, that's a 1980s album. 

Anyhoo, two I'll suggest off the top of my head are Freedy Johnston's "Can 
You Fly" and Matthew Ryan's "May Day," two albums I've been thinking of 
lately as I listen to Pete Krebs' fantastic new one. It got me thinking that 
every once is a while the singer-songwriter mode is still vital. 

Anyhoo.
