Starfish (The Church LP with "Under the Milky Way") is in my top 10 (perhaps even top 5) favorite LPs of all time. Every song on it is fantastic even if most of them were never hits.
Icehouse found a much more mainstream audience. I liked the tune No Promises a lot, although some of their tunes (such as "Crazy") were a bit too top-40 sounding for my ears, or maybe they just got overplayed by north American radio at the time.
