- Call Off Your Dogs-Lake Street Dive (A fun, new tune with a groove and vocals that would have been at home on the radio during the late '70s or early '80s; it's one of the catchiest tunes of 2016, so far, and would flow well after Queen's "Another One Bites The Dust" or "Christmas Wrapping" by The Waitresses.)
- You Won't See Me-The Beatles (A forthright yet tempered way to express exasperation with someone. It's not immediately obvious, but lyrically, "Call Off Your Dogs" and "You Won't See Me" are two sides of the same coin. Both tunes, in distinctly different ways, implore someone to see the light and be more reasonable. Also recommended from the "Rubber Soul" album: "In My Life," "I'm Looking Through You," and "Wait.")
- Here's That Rainy Day-Ben Haugland (An engaging combo, featuring Haugland on piano, turns in a straight ahead rendition that lets the song breathe. Trumpet and saxophone solos enhance the tune without overpowering it.)
- When We Were Young-Adele (A moving reminder of what drew two people together. As usual, Adele emotes with full-throated conviction.)
- That Girl-Stevie Wonder (How satisfying it must be for an artist to have such a strong assortment of hits that he can compile an "Original Musiquarium I" in which every track is a winner. "That Girl"'s sly atmosphere kicks in right on the first note and keeps the listener hooked.)
