Personally, Kate Bush is a must
Toto are one of the best bands in the history of rock, their sound so unique. I first ever saw that "Hydra" vid as a kid on a Halloween music video show hosted by Elvira Mistress of the Night. The show featured videos by Joy Division, Clash, Devo, Alice Cooper, Doors and Toto amongst others, but it was the Toto video that stuck most in my mind.

Agree, Kate Bush is always a must and one of the greatest female artists ever.

this one is easily the best of the bunch (dir. by Tobe Hooper):-

Billy defeats an entire army of zombies with rock n roll (and a power generator surge)
I'd knew you'd like Billy Idol, I have a soft spot for his music as well and really think Rebel Yell and Whiplash Smile great albums.
