Cover songs for the next DLR/VH album!

[Loons The Great]

I Just Wanna Make Love To You--Muddy Waters

I heard it through the grapevine that Van Halen used to cover this tune in 'em ol' club days nah yez...

[Loons The Great]

She's Dangerous--Willie Dixon/The Red Devils

This is one of the greates' threads in the history of the world/internet/universe. 'Nuff said.

[Loons The Great]

Lady Madonna--Elvis Presley style...at the end of the tune, 'Vis says,"...tell ya what, you guys hungry??"

WAKE UP

[Loons The Great]

Break On Through--The mighty Doors

[DeadOrAlive]

Dave should have done Smokin' in the Boy's Room.

That song SCREAMS Dave's voice.

[hecate honey]

"Crown of Thorns" by Mother Love Bone

[Leadsinger777]

I think Dave would kick major ass on 'House of the Rising Sun' by The Animals.

Oh, and I'd vote for yah, but i don't know how ...

[Loons The Great]

Lead Belly sang a good version of,"House Of The Rising Son," too.

Page/Plant sang a helluva medley of House Of The Rising Son/Good Times, Bad Times in New Orleans in the mid or late 90's.

[Loons The Great]

"I'm A Mojo Man"--Lonesome Sundown

[Loons The Great]

Suzy Q--Dale Hawkins

[Loons The Great]

Me and My Gang--The Rascal Flats

[Shaun Ponsonby]

I could imagine him doing Smokin' In The Boys Room

I've been thinking aboot "Get Off My Cloud" recently, as well. Don't know why-its not a really obvious one for Dave, really.

Back in Vegas with Edgar Winter he did Free Ride. The recording I have sounds weak, but live it was the best performance of the night.

completely unpredictable but relevant to a cool Dave vibe-
'Black Betty' by Ram Jam-just dont ask me who they are or another title.

[MERRYKISSMASS2U]

How about we have ONE DLR or Van Halen album with 100% original material?

Well, they didn't do the original.

They only did 2 albums. The first sucked, but had Black Betty on it.

Get "Portrait of the Artist as a Young Ram". It hasn't got Black Betty on it, but its a gem.

I HATE your opinion. I LOVED it when VH, LZ, The Who, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, The Rolling Stones, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf, Bling Dog Fulton, Robert Johnson, Mississippi Fred McDowell, R.L. Burnside, Son House, or Muddy Waters soup'd up a dreaded cover tune. LOVE IT!!!!!!!

Bo Diddley - Say Man

Greg Kihn Band - Jeopardy

If you weren't going to say it, I was! Fuck a bunch of covers! I'm sick of covers...covers suck! Didn't anyone get their fill of covers with the Diamond Dave album? I'm ready for some new material!

[Loons The Great]

The Ride--Hank Williams, Jr.

Covahs are b-b-b-b-b-bad to de bone nah yez yezzah!!

[Jérôme Frenchise]

Well. If Dave is never to release an all-through original album like "DLR Band", after all, as we are some to agree with the idea, what if he got into the blues, his huge voice would just fit perfectly... It's almost obvious.

So, here's another suggestion: "Taj Mahal's "Corrina".

I got a bird wanna whistles
Baby, got a bird
Honey got a bird 't will sing
Baby, got a bird
Honey got a bird 't will sing

Without my Corinna
Sure don't mean
Sure don't mean a natural thing
Oh, I learned to love you
Baby, for I call
Honey, for I call your name
Baby, for I call
Honey, for I call out your name
I wouldn't trade your love for money
Baby, you're my warm hearts
Honey, you're my warm hearts flame
Oh, oh, oh (Corinna)
(Hmm, ain't nothing like my Corinna)
(Na, na, na, na, na, na, na (Corinna)
(Hmm, ain't nothing like my Corinna)
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Honey, you're my hard luck
Baby, you're my hard luck soul
Honey, you're my hard luck
Women, on my hard luck soul
Got a rainbow round my shoulder
Shine like silver
Looks like some ol' fools' gold

-solo-

(Ooh, ah, ooh)
(Corinna) Oh, oh
(Hmm, ain't nothing like my Corinna)
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, ooh
(Corinna) (Hmm, ain't nothing like my Corinna)

Well, I love you so much, honey
Gotta tell the world
Baby, baby, tell the world I do
(Corinna)
Oh, honey tell the world
Baby, tell the world I do
You know, you know, you know, you know
Ain't no man, ain't no man in fourteen countries
Gonna love me baby
Baby like the way you do
Hey, hey, hey
I got a bird wanna whistle
Baby, got a bird
Honey, got a bird will sing
Honey got a bird
Baby, got a bird that will sing
Oh, without my Corinna
Sure don't mean
Sure don't mean a natural thing
Gotta say it one more time (Corinna) Oh
(Hmm, ain't nothing like my Corinna)
Oh (Corinna)
(Hmm, ain't nothing like my Corinna)
Ain't nothin, nothin, nothin, nothin
(Hmm, ain't nothin like my Corinna)
Tell the world, tell the world about it (Corinna)
(Hmm, ain't nothin like my Corinna) Sing!
(Corinna) (Hmm) Ooh
(Ain't nothin like my Corinna) hee, hee
I like it when you...
(Hmm, ain't nothin like my)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, (Corinna) Oh
Corinna (Corinna)
(Hmm, ain't nothin like my Corinna)
Corinna, Corinna (Corinna)
(Hmm, ain't nothin like my Corinna)
Corinna, oh, oh, Corinna (Corinna)
(Hmm, ain't nothin like my Corinna)...

Don't you hear Diamond singin' already?
I'm sure that sweet DG would agree.
