1 Up to and including First And Last And Always.
2 Up to and including Floodland.
3 Up to and including Vision Thing.

Focus on the best songs from each era. And make them all sound the same
Or, alternatively, focus on songs that are never performed live but would work very well in that context. And make them all sound the same
