More vintage AOR
I can't call these "deferred listening" because I actually had the records at one point, but I don't think I do anymore. Still, they are of a piece with the songs in my last Deferred Listening post: AOR also-rans, songs that got played on the rock stations in the years around 1980, just not very much. The Marc Tanner Band's "Hot and Cold," from the 1981 Temptation album, is underpinned by a particularly sweet acoustic guitar riff (sorry, the YouTube fan video is the only file I can find):
"DB Cooper"'s 1980 album Buy American included the minor hit "Heart Freeze" with a nice chunky electric guitar sound. He/they is/are sometimes classified as "power pop" (a.k.a. stealth new wave), but I think the music is closer to the standard album-rock of the time:
