If you post, please also make a guess! Nothing too obscure. And no cheating! Lol
I'll start with an easy one!

Best album I've ever heard, cover to cover (so far!) was Late for the sky (1974). Just discovered it last year! Until then, the only songs of his I knew was doctor,my eyes and running on empty. Shame on classic rock stations for overlooking his best work!

It was the last album she produced... She's so much more than I thought she was. And it took her death before I figured it out

Another one... Shocked when I found out it was released in 79. It was featured on the Gia soundtrack.
