Cheeze platter comin' up! Olivia Newton-John Travolta!  BOS2, a classic of its kind.


This also has the distinction of being the 5th-to-last tune in the archive when sorted by song title (which for some reason was the last thing I'd done before saving & closing, so it was right there today when I opened up the file).

Pop Quiz: How many of the last 4 song titles can you come up with?


Oops, I just caught a typo, actually there are only 3 tunes after this one.

Pretty good less-played Genesis tune -- from Duke?

Hmm, so we get both Gabriel and Genesis in one set. VHM Deep in the Motherload. Almost a BOS simply because it's way way better than Follow You Follow Me, and it was the first song I ever heard Genesis play live (it opened the show on the 78 tour--don't ask me how I remember this sh*t). Anyway, big sledgehammer.

OMG and TANC: I was just thinking of this song yesterday. More Cheeze, Exile, "Kiss You All Over"  Chapman & Chinn had quite a year in '78

Sledgehammer of set for Exile.  I remember really despising this song because I wasn't getting any.  Ditto for "Night Moves" which came out about the same time.

Pretty sure those last three come before "You're the One That I Want", alphabetically speaking.

DAMN, that was a short set! That's what happens when you don't play any loooooooooong versions.

Surprising with the Genocide tune in there.

I used Top40 db for help -- they consider "you're" to be "you are" I guess.

Excel sorts the apostrophe to come after 'z', so you're comes after your.  Don't know if that sits well with our team of copy editors, but that's the way the Db works.  Strangely there is no entry for "Ziggy Stardust", can't believe he hasn't played that for a minimum of 27 months, but there ya go.  Not surprised that "You're the Only Woman" hasn't been included, which is to say that none of your guesses are correct.
