Avalon and
Bete Noir are two CDs that I keep meaning to add to my collection...but then I forget about them.

Mr. Costello and Mr. Dolby also write excellent melodies. And then there's They Might Be Giants - I think their earlier better work is 80s. They're all about melody.

I dunno UT...
Flood was a fantastic pop record...and that was '90.
Elvis Costello is going to be part of the tribute to Joe Strummer tomorrow night on the Grammys. His new CD happens to be really good.
I liked the first Dolby album, but I thought
Aliens Ate My Buick was pretty good too...and he did a great video for "Airhead."
