As for BJ, pretty much anything he wrote in the '70's is pretty good, before he got too "pop"
BTW, B-17, way to go on your musical taste; IMHO, most of the music written today (especially hip-hop/rap) is written simply to make a quick buck, not to be creative. My wife listens to one of those "pop" stations, and 90% of what they play is garbage. Back in MY day (the '70's), people wrote music to express themselves, and to create something beautiful, not to stuff their wallet. There's a reason for the phrase "starving artist"; nowadays, it's all about money, and how many "hits" you've got.
