I used to have that album Nurds by The Roches and I loved it. And another one too but forget the name of it

Excellent. Too many records I do not know, so I cannot rate higher. But the cover of Seductive Reasoning looks like I should have it.

Great chart. Thanks for the Quincy Jones' 'Smackwater Jack', I didn't know that gem.
