Undercover is a favorite. Aren't "Feel On" and "I Want To Hold You" on this
one? Undercover is a great political piece.

Dirty Work is pretty much Keith's album and a blueprint for his solo albums.
It's worth it just for "Winning Ugly". Keith's songs on this one are killer
too. The demos for this album are something you might want to look for. Bobby
Womack and Don Covay were brought in to sing, as Mick was on the outs with
Keith. There is a great 12 minute r&b thing with Mick, Bobby, and Don. Also a
song that I think is called Totally Memphis that should have been on the album

I think these two are particularly over looked albums. You can always find 'em
cheap too.

Also from around the time of Flash Point there are two or three incredible
blues b-sides. (Fancy Man Blues, and others) I have a deluxe edition of
Flashpoint with a second disc with all these and some other remixes or
something. Look for them.
