Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me



Heart - Barracuda, Straight On For You



Pat Benatar - Love Is A Battlefield



Don't Look Back - Boston



Billy Squier - The Stroke

Stevie Nicks - Stand Back (Phil Collins played drums and Prince did the keyboards in a couple of her songs during that time period)



Billy Idol - Eyes Without A Face



ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man (the Elimator album ... it was a really big hit ... my son (14) loves the street rod, fuzzy guitars and the beards) www.zztop.com



Breakfast in America (Supertramp) was another good album but before 1984, as was Peter Frampton Live.

Don't forget



Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers



Scorpions - Love at First Sting



The Smiths - The Smiths



Metallica - Ride the Lightning



I know that Smiths album doesn't really fit the hard rock theme of the other selections but it is great.
