Billy Squier – Don't Say No (LP, Album, Winchester Pressing, 1981, Capitol Records ST 12146)

Why This Record Matters
Don't Say No was Billy Squier's commercial breakthrough and one of the defining hard rock albums of the early 1980s. Powered by staples such as “The Stroke,” “Lonely Is The Night,” and “My Kinda Lover,” the album became a cornerstone of album-oriented rock radio. Original US pressings remain popular with classic rock collectors.
