1970's
Grateful Dead -- Estimated Prophet
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp18EhK_lBE
A master class in songwriting. A reggae tune in an effortless 7/4 time signature interspersed with two great Garcia guitar leads. The first riffs in a major key, the second in a spooky, funky minor key. Great stuff.

Give me back my man is my favourite by B52s, bought the single, absolutely love it! U2's 11 o'clock tick tock is brilliant especially live from Red Rocks
I'm going back to 505, I saw them at Sheffield and they were amazing.

I like Rock Lobster well enough, not top ten B52's and a bit of a comedy song which cheapens itMuppet the Cat wrote: ↑Wed Oct 17, 2018 7:23 pm B52's - Rock Lobster is on my 70's list of potentials, but I guess that is far too an obvious B52's track for you faaip
Give me back my man, 52 Girls, the wonderful intro to Planet Claire which is iconic imo. Lava, Private Idaho (probably my favourite 52's) Dance this Mess Around, Party out of bounds, Strobe Light ...
to name a few better
