Blue Angel [Polydor, 1980]
There's a lyric sheet for some reason, and God knows the colorized cover cultivates a look, but the selling point of this uptown power pop is Cyndi Lauper's cute, zaftig voice--the songs all feature little toon-tricks designed to show off its swoops and swells. Try the band feature, a '50s cover that goes "Wo, wo, cut out," and the autobiographical '50s tribute, "Late." C+
