sorry I'm coming in at the end of this one... "LA Woman" followed by "Family Affair".

That's one I wish DM would tap into a bit more. Monkberry Moon Delight would be a good 'un too.
Let's get right to it.

Playing the Paul/John face-off songs back-to-back some day would be a kick.  For me Ram is interesting historically rather than musically. I agreed with crits at the time that it was mostly pretty wimpy.

A great lost one-hit wonder in this set: Wadsworth Mansion, "Sweet Mary."

And a true OHW too: the song went TopTen and they never made the Hot 100 again. Ticketicketicket to hop a freight!
