"Sultans of Swing" is more '78 than '79, no?
It was a big hit in spring of '79.  I have vivid memory of it then.

guess it's one o' those cuspy ones. But as mshray notes, Communique came out less than a year after their debut.

Ha!  Actually, it peaked in late '78 so that actually increases the possibility she'll play it! ;)

I always stick around for the '79 bonus, since Annalisa loves to play "I Do the Rock".

According to Wikipedia:

It entered the American music pop charts in early 1979.

BOS II

I don't want to start a ruckus, but if Dave justifies his selections based on charting, okay fine, play "Sultans", but how can he play the Clash tune in 1979, when the album was released on Dec 14, 1979, and very, very few people even heard this once in 1979?  It certainly wasn't an advance single.
