I don't know her music and only hear about her in the news. Is their an album that is musically interesting, good composition, good musicians, innovative instrumentation? I don't care about lyrics.

No. It's all fluff. There's worse fluff out there, but it's all fluff.

1989 was probably the only one I bothered with and that was for the instrumentation. Had a nice "driving at night" almost vaporwave feel to some of the tracks, specifically Style. Would I call it innovative? Or terribly interesting? Not really, no. It was palatable and had a few tracks i could enjoy.

I know her music pretty well, having raised two daughters over the past 20 years

Personally, my favorite of her albums is Folklore. It’s closest to the indie sound I enjoy
