I originally wanted to do a full tab of the Spoons' "Arias & Symphonies", but I'm in the middle of doing a tab and I'm already committed to the next one, so rather than have the part I've done so far sit around gathering dust, I figure I'll post it to the riff section. Maybe I'll get a tab of the whole song done sometime. It's my favourite Spoons song.
"Arias" was, of course, a big hit for the band in 1982, the highest charting single of their career (#18). It was the title track of their second album, also released in 1982. Tabbed here is the Intro.
SPOONS - "Arias & Symphonies" (G. Deppe)

Audio (studio recording): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc7UHuXAXno (song begins at 19:02 mark)

(In the live video linked to above the band is playing the song 1 tone lower than the original recording.)
The song "68 Hours" appears on National Velvet's 1988 self-titled debut album. Released as a single/video in 1989, the track earned the band a CASBY award ("Canadian Artists Selected By You") from Toronto alt-rock radio station CFNY.
