Songs you'd like to hear covered by PG / PGSG
Hello,
I've been reading the postings and record reviews and it seems that the consensus on PGSG is that there is a lack of strong material for the studio records and an over reliance of Robert Johnson covers at the live shows - Well...what would you like to hear them play? Here are a few my my wish list: 1) Cold Day in Hell - Otis Rush - a huge influence on Green and this is custom made for Green's playing - a great slow burner 2) The Burning of the Midnight Lamp - Jimi Hendrix - drop the lyrics, do it instrumental, like Stevie Ray Vaughan did with "Little Wing" - could be done electric or acoustic 3) Somebody in My Home - Howlin' Wolf - another touchstone for Green - using an arrangement similar to the one utilitized for the Boston Tea Party versions of Jumping at Shadows, this could showcase not only Green's guitar but his harmonica as well 4) The Man in the Long Black Coat - Bob Dylan - with it's bare bones structure Green could build an interesting soundscape and it's speak / sing vocal line is well suited to Green's "new" vocal style 5) Illinois Blues - Skip James - back to basics - Green solo on National Steel - what more could you need? These are just a few ideas - hopefully other people have their own and we could maybe put an album's worth of material together (just for the hell of it)
