Despite "we haven't had that spirit here since 1969" being one of the all-time great lines... I could easily go 5 years without hearing "Hotel Calif" (either of its 2overplayed versions) and not miss it.

Cheeze for Breakfast -- Bob pulls out one of his cheeziest standbys, "Afternoon Delight".  The SVB coulda been the Mamas & Papas of the '70s. So... wha'happened?

BOS Genesis, which I wasn't into yet for some reason back in '76.  Odd since I would have told you that my favorite stuff was all prog rock then.

Paulie Beatle with the live version of "maybe I'm Amazed" -- I've never understood why the original was never a single. Did Apple/Capitol not want to compete with "Long & Winding Road"? Was it his decision or theirs? It got airplay like a single anyway, and clearly would've been a huge hit.
