  1. Well, here’s one, anyway:

    8 – “E.T.I. (Extra Terrestrial Intelligence)” – Blue Öyster Cult

  2. 2. I Don’t Like Mondays – Boomtown Rats
    3. Sunny Afternoon – Kinks
    4. Way Over Yonder in the Minor Key – I’m going to say Billy Bragg and Wilco, but maybe Woody
    7. The Wind Cries Mary – Jimi Hendrix
