- Breakaway-The Lewis Sisters (An interesting lead alto voice, appealing backing vocals, and cool Motown instrumentation make this album track a winner. I'm surprised this wasn't a hit. Dr. Jeff, the host of "The Big Bang," has a knack for choosing overlooked tunes like this.)
- Too Late-Shoes (This was a go-to power pop track of choice for me at KCOU.)
- Coyote-Joni Mitchell (Listeners who like "Free Man In Paris" or "Help Me" should enjoy this tune, as well; it combines vocal and guitar styles similar to those in those two songs.)
- Newborn Friend-Seal (One of Seal's best blends of lyrics, vocals, and uptempo instrumentation.)
- Give It All You Got-Chuck Mangione (This instrumental's title is perfect, as it captures the feel of determination and effort one needs when faced with a tall task. It's no wonder that it was once the theme song of the Olympics.)
- Golden Time Of Day-Maze featuring Frankie Beverly (Fit for unwinding at the end of a long day.)
- Enrique Granados: Spanish Dance No. 4 in C (Alicia de Larrocha, piano) (A modest, engaging melody that works equally well on piano and guitar.)
