Talking Heads start to become really good here, the Devo album is big fun, great debut of Siouxsie, some other good ones here, too, but always being biased in favour of my favourites, I vote Patti Smith again.

Tom Robinson Band - Power in the Darkness,  but Pub Rock to me (and for instance RYM)
                      quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

Yeah, a bunch of interesting albums, also for nostalgic reasons, but the only one I enjoy listening to still regularly nowadays is Lene Lovich's Stateless.

The Cars. Still sounds fresh to my ears.

Elvis, XTC, The Police, and Talking Heads, follow closely behind.
