Cover songs for the next DLR/VH album!

[Loons The Great]

Ize been on a Doors kick lately. Read a cool book by Stephen Davis,"Jim Morrison:Legend, Life, and Death."...an' I found out that Meyer Lansky was also being tried in Miami the same time as Mr. Mojo Risin' and Morrison was sleeping with one of the gangster's mistresses. When he found out about thiz...it only motivated him more!!...an' I read that Ronald Reagan was going to pardon Jim but at the last minute reneged...you couldn't mention Ronald's name 'round The Lizard King after that or he'd break into a fit of cursing...an' I also read that Elvis copied Morrison's black leather look for the '68 Comeback Special...lastly, the book said that Harrison Ford was a part of The Doors road crew...

Nah we talkin' some blues right here, right nah yez yez yez...talkin' the three b's...not Bach, Brahms, and Beethoven...talkin' barrelhouse, blues, and the natch'l boogie woogie nah I said yez...alright alright...Yez Yeah, baby!!

Nothin' but the best and later for the garbage.

Hoodoo Man--Junior Wells

44 Long--Rufus Thomas

Rock Me Baby--Muddy Waters style

Rock My Plimsoul--The Jeff Beck Group

Ida Red--(traditional)

and that commin from the Roth Army Rounda ...

[Jérôme Frenchise]

It wouldn't change the overall direction of the "Diamond Dave" album, but I'm sure that, like all that's already been suggested here, Dave would feel damn comfortable singing Taj Mahal's "Ain't that a lot of love"...

"You gotta dig it baby..."

I wasn't trying to explain...I was just moving on to the next song that Dave could cover.

Strut by Taj Mahal

and then I quoted my favorite lyrics from it:

"drinkin'your white-lightnin' and talkin' all outta your head"

sorry about the confusion, Maximus

and a "rounder" or as I say a "rounda" is a guy who gets around.

I was just teasing. :p

[jslav06]

I think some WHAM! covers are in order.

[Loons The Great]

Youngblood, you mus' a be talkin' 'bout,"Wham!," by Lonnie Mack nah Yez Yeah!!

Loons,

I do.

You and I are going to do an original. Both of our stellar yet twisted minds will come up with something crezzi, soul and a lot of attitude. Seriously, we're doin' it. You're playin' harp on it too.

thats what the blues iz all 'bout right there

I wanna hear Dave lay out Boogie Chillun

One night I was layin' down,
I heard mama 'n papa talkin'
I heard papa tell mama, let that boy boogie-woogie,
it's in him, and it got to come out
And I felt so good,
went on boogie'n just the same


I wouldn't mind Roth doing a "Just Me and the Hook" type album. That would kick some ass, no?

Yardbirds - Train Kept A Rollin'

Big Joe Williams wrote Baby Please Don't Go...although legend has it, he stole the song from Bessie Smith, The Empress Of The Blues. My favourite version of the tune is by Memphis Slim, although I think F.O.R.D. would agree that AC/DC did the greates' version.

Tiny Bradshaw wrote Train Kept A Rollin', also the first song Led Zeppelin ever jammed on.

Awesome picks, Coyote!!
