I just noticed Elt is on all 4 shows! Has one act ever hit the superfecta before?? Three of those four songs hit the Top Ten - including his only two Top Tens during the early 1977 - late 1983 stretch during which he was struggling on the chart. Too bad the second show wasn't from 1984 or 1988, as he was on the chart in August of those years with songs of his that made the Top Ten. It would be somewhat difficult to have a superfecta like that, since, during a weekend with four shows, at least two of them would have to be during said era when Top Ten hits for Elton John were so few and far between - although both of the Top Ten hits from the period did have long chart runs - fourteen weeks for "Mama Can't Buy You Love" and seventeen for "Little Jeannie").

When was the last time all four shows in one weekend fell within an 8 year span (with 3 days to spare)? (August 2, 1975 to July 30, 1983)
ETA: I found only one other similar instance... but none with a narrower gap...
4/9/2022: 4/12/1975 (70's A show) paired with 4/8/1978 (70's B show) 4/9/2022: 4/11/1981 (80's A show) paired with 4/9/1983 (80's B show)
Again, just 3 days shy of 8 years gap from oldest show to newest show that weekend.
