In deze Top 50 vind je op nummer 31 Gimme some lovin' van Traffic. Op 15 wederom die prachtige Waiting for the sun van de Doors en op 25 Peter en z'n Rockets met de 1971 versie van Kom van dat dak af. Peter Holland heeft Baby I'm a want you van Bread als kanskaart gekozen. Een mooie plaat, waar ook videomateriaal van bestaat. Helaas heb ik op 192TV nog geen videoclips van Bread kunnen ontdekken, ook heb ik nog nooit materiaal van Bread op DVD gezien (mogelijk een rechten issue).
