Though live in 1989 I knew the audio with my eyes closed. It's distinctive to me but may not be for HH.

"as we heard them and knew them"
I have plenty of my favorite originals and alot of them may never be identified. I'll have to give clues. All are top 50 or top 75 billboard hits but you may not have followed group A or group B.
If you, for example, can not recognize ALL songs by Gary Lewis and The Playboys then you'll be stumped without clues.
Twice I've made my point about the unacceptability of using live versions in a game based on very short clips. And twice we just talk past each other for reasons that I've given up trying to understand. The highlighted comments are completely extraneous to my point.
Being stumped because you've never heard the song is fair game. Being stumped because you haven't heard the song for 50 years and have forgotten most of it is fair game. Being stumped because the one-second clip is of a version done by a garage band down the street that call themselves Joey and the Stinkbombs is NOT fair game. And that goes equally for live versions by original artists. Most of them are stupid, bear little resemblance to the original, and thus may as well have been done by Joey and the Stinkbombs.
Using live or obscure song versions for these short clips changes fun into pure frustration. It's your thread to conduct as you please, but I'm done here.
