I need to get the RCA albums -- I have Muswell, but don't have Schoolboys, Soap Opera and some of the others. As for the Arista years -- I agree with Rob 100% about Low Budget and Give the People What They Want. Sleepwalker and Misfits are pretty nice too. However, State Of Confusion and Word Of Mouth are a bit more blustery and just don't have as many good songs. The live album is still a gem. Both the RCA and Arista years are, thanks to Koch, sold in bargain priced (about $9.50 per disc) box sets.
