Sure, I have the entire set for 1981 @320 recorded from near mint vinyl.

I was not nearly as impressed with the 1981 edition compared to the 1978
show.  The new edition really shorts the late 50's and early 60's by playing
a lot of collages of those songs.
In the 1978 edition the Beatles did not appear until chapter 17.  The 1981
version skips so much of the early years that the Beatles appear in Chapter
8.
The 1981 edition preserves much of the music from 1964 forward but gives an
entire hour to  Barry Manilow and half hours of Barbra Striesand, Donna
Summer, Dionne Warwick and Kenny Rogers!!
While they are/were popular I don't consider them rock and roll artists.

Anyway I will start posting.  Hopefully no one will object if I use the 70's
group rather than spreading the series across the the four decades.

Cheers!
