Take (in no order), the four tracks from the A-side of Shapes, the Abacab t/t and fill the rest with Duke (except On Again and Misunderstanding)
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Oh dont mind Silver Rainbow.
Good you mentioning the Duke Suite. Played together, in my opinion, it beats Supper's Ready.

Wow that’s exactly my favourite ten 80’s songs

The ones I really love are
Behind the Lines -Turn It On Again - Abacab - Dodo/Lurker - That's All (!)
The rest can be filled up by anything not yet listed from the Duke album, which by far has the highest "base level"; not really a fan of what happened later.
