The Wedding Singer Original Soundtrack, Volume I & II
As a summation of the music featured in the 1998 music-themed film, this two-volume soundtrack works very well. As a versatile, comprehensive compilation of the varied tapestry that was '80s music, it’s even better. Somehow, even though this collection of music was not expressly intended to summarize the music of a decade (or perhaps because of that fact), it does that job far better than a myriad of compilations with far greater ambitions.

The Kings-The Kings Are Here and More
This, the quintessential release from Ontario's power pop/new wave/rock and roll party band, collects the group's 1980 debut and adds five tracks that explore the boundaries of its signature sound. It's some of the best, most unique and most accessible music you've probably never heard.
