Tue 8/16/11: OHWs!
and before the set even starts they're playing Tommy Tutone.
...but we kick off with Pilot's "Magic". Oh Ho Ho!
It is a damn shame David Essex is a OHW in the US. He put out some wonderful pop singles (all UK hits) after "Rock On".

BOS Edison Lighthouse, nicest surprise of set and one of 4 hits Tony Burrows sang on in 1970. (per Wiki: "In February 1970, he became the first [and still the only] person to appear on BBC Television's Top of the Pops fronting three different acts in one show: Edison Lighthouse [who were number one that week], White Plains, and Brotherhood of Man." He also sang with the Pipkins.)
