I stopped following them sometime after Dream Police. We saw that tour,
and it was quite good. I think they ran into some legal issues that
screwed things up for them.
As a high water mark in studio albums, I probably choose Heaven
Tonight. Contains my favourite song of theirs Auf Wiedershein.
Something about that tune strikes me any time I hear it. Caveat being
it needs to be played excessively loud.
I have the earlier albums as well, nothing wrong there either.

Budokan was mine too but I'd only been into music for about a year at
that point. "I Want You to Want Me" came out then and it was great.
Next came "Surrender" and it was better. They were good until they were
forced to sell out late 80's for some big hits which they got. I heard
they went back to good music afterwards and again didn;t sell much.
Figures.
