Ik kom uit op deze 6, alfabetisch:

Cheap Trick - Ain't that a shame (1979)
Gary Numan - Cars (1979)
Joe Jackson - Is she really going out with him (1979)
Supertramp - Goodbye stranger (1979)
Van Morrison - Bright side of the road (1979)

Leuke lijst, al zit er ook een hoop spul tussen dat ik me niet kan herinneren. Maar een top-20 samenstellen is geen probleem:

1. Supertramp - Goodbye stranger
2. Little River Band - Lonesome loser (mooi acapella intro)
3. Toto - I'll supply the love (prachtig instrumentaal staartje)
4. Joe Jackson - Is she really goin out with him
5. Van Morrison - Bright side of the road (volgens mij een dubbele A- kant met Full force gale, ook een heel goed nummer)
6. Partner - Pictures (uitstekende Nederlandse soft-rockband. Wanneer verschijnt hier eens een CD van?)
7. Ashford & Simpson - Found a cure (fantastische disco-soul, te verkiezen in de 12" uitvoering)
8. Brecker Brothers - East river (heerlijke funk-stomper)
9. Bad Company - Rock & roll fantasy
10 Hugo van Haastert - I see a light (volkomen ten onrechte vergeten nederpop-klassiekertje)

11. Cheap Trick - Ain't that a shame (ik vind de single-versie beter, want compacter dan de LP-uitvoering)
12. Amii Stewart - Knock on wood (was dit niet gewoon een grote hit die verder kwam dan de tipparade?)
13. John Hiatt - Radio girl (mijn eerste kennismaking met deze latere favoriet)
14. Gerry Rafferty - Get it right next time
15. Giorgio Moroder - Chase (disco-klassieker, bijna net zo goed als I feel love)
16. Sad Cafe - Every day hurts
17. Beach Boys - Lady Lynda (typisch dat ze in dit jaar nog 3x de tipparade hebben gehaald. Dit is de mooiste van de drie, met een prachtig intro en outro)
18. Jags - Back of my hand (heerlijke Britse powerpop)
19. Bob Marley - Is this love
20. Bombers - Get dancin' (lange 12" uitvoering met mooie 'break')

1. Gary Numan - Cars (1979)
Gary rules altijd!

2. Bolland & Bolland - Melodrama (1979)
Zelfde soort thema als "I don't like Mondays" van "Boomtown rats"

3. Meteors - It's you, only you (1979)
Later gecoverd door Lene Lovich

4. Buckeye - Where will your heart take you
5. Oliver Onions - Six ways (1979)
6. Ba Robertson - Bang bang (1979)

7. Gruppo Sportivo - Sleeping bag (1979)
Dat weirde outro is het helemaal!

8. Frank Zappa - Dancin' fool (1979)

9. Nick Straker band - A walk in the park (1979)
Een jaar later stond van dezelfde producer "Tell Michelle" van "White fire" in de lijsten.

10. Carolyn Mas - Stillsane (1979)

11. Gerald Masters - Falling (1979)
Echte radioplaat, maar al 20 jaar niet meer gehoord.

12. Sad Cafe - Everyday hurts (1979)

13. Planets - Lines (1979)
Cover van een Korgis plaat

14. Andy Bown - Another shipwreck (1979)
15. Milk & Honey - Goodbye New York (1979)
16. Angie - Peppermint lump (1979)
17. Maggie Macneal - Nighttime (1979)
18. Dooleys - Wanted (1979)
19. Klaatu - A routine day (1979)
20. Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Don't kill it Carol (1979)

Ik heb de single nog. Is zeker een mooi nummer.. enneh Amii Stewart werd inderdaad later wel een hit.

1. Frank Zappa - Dancin' fool (1979)
2. Gary Numan - Cars (1979)
3. Klaatu - A routine day (1979)
4. Paul Maccartney & Wings - Getting closer (1979)
5. Joe Jackson - Is she really going out with him (1979)
6. Nina Hagen - Unbeschreiblich weiblich (1979)
7. Stevie Wonder - Send one your love (1979)
8. Van Morrison - Bright side of the road (1979)
9. Tourists - I only want to be with you (1979)
10. Nick Straker band - A walk in the park (1979)

Ik ken er slechts drie:

01. Supertramp - Goodbye stranger (1979)
02. Eagles - The long run (1979)
03. Toto - I'll supply the love (1979)

Ik pas m'n top 10 bij deze drastisch aan:
