I love Ambrosia, but I've never thought of them as power pop.

I couldn't find a way to fit 2 of my all-time favorites (Queen and Prince)
on to the list. I tried to keep it to one disc per artist though Silver Sun
had 2 that would make the top five so I had to list the discs separately. I
saved an asterisk for those who may have had 2 top 20 entries. I'm looking
forward to joining the Pop Underground!!
