I really want to listen to. Whether I'm doing serious listening or just
putting on some for me to play guitar to.

Any suggestions. But please no Mac related, I've got them and Elvis
covered. But even more important, I would prefer material that was
recorded very well.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Well, what kind of music do you like? I love Fleetwood Mac, but that's because I think they're actually closer to the Sex Pistols than most AOR/soft rock groups, about which I have little interest (though I do love Cheap Trick -- that's soft rock right?). Mac are the artists in that genre. I guess that's what I seek out. I like all kinds of music, but I like the artists within those genres.

So I guess I'd recommend first and foremost:

Talking Heads (77-80)
Public Enemy (88-94)
The Smiths (everything)
Roxy Music (everything)
New Order (everything)
Elvis Costello (77-86)
Pet Shop Boys (everything)
