Cover Songs you'd love to see

[Karen]

It would need some killer instrument solos breaking up the vocals.

pretty sure GPN can deliver those

[wags]

How about

"Do you want to touch me(oh yeah)" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts
I think it would be killer

[tipiboy]

It would need some killer instrument solos breaking up the vocals.

Which would be Awesome!!! (_8*D Toofar was Just telling The lil Posse party exactly that last night: "Don't usually enter these conversations but ... GPN Would Kill I got The Music in Me!?!?!" They agreed ... But over steak & lobster we were all pretty agreeable! 8*)

[Hollowdweller]

Eskimo Blue Day by the Jefferson Airplane

They have already covered White Rabbit and the environmental lyrics and the way the vocals and instrumental part builds on the original to a huge climax would be really suited to the way they play.

Dont' Misunderstand Me by the Rossington Collins Band

That was a hit for them and is a rocker that has that bluesey edge like GPN has anyway with a chance for the female singer (Dale Krantz) to shine plus the guitar players to rock out.

[Hollowdweller]

Proud Mary

[DHBucker]

You're No Good-Linda Ronstadt
So Far away-Carole King
Respect-Aretha Franklin
Can't You Hear Me Knockin' or Love in Vain-The Stones. "knockin" would allow the band to stretch their legs is a big and very cool way IMHO, and heck they could call it Can't Ya Hear Me 'Nocin. HEE!

[Xaphan]

I agree that the Stone's "Knocking" would be awesome for the whole band! I'd also love to hear Grace doing Marty Balin's "Coming Back To Me". I would think it could begin with the Hammond and then go to acoustic.

[Karen]

Ten Years Gone: Led Zeppelin

Love that Zep Song... my fav Zep tunes change all the time though... right now my two favs are "The Rover" and "Down By The Seaside". but i'm not sure either one would be all the great for a GPN cover...

Found this GPN Led Zeppelin cover from 12/6/08 while searching for something else:

"Your Time Is Gonna Come"

Recommendation:

And another LZep song: The Rain Song

Happy that my roof is no longer leaking, I can go back to loving rain - this song not really about rain, but very beautiful.

I wholeheartedly agree with each of those. I think GPN could play a fantastic "You're No Good."


I know they've played this one before, but I'd love to see The Who's "Getting in Tune" make a comeback!
Oh and Clapton's "Tell the Truth"!!

[JSJoyce]

Drove home from work just minutes ago and heard a great song that GPN would knock out of the park:

"Foreplay/Long Time" by Boston, from their self-titled first album.

I challenge you to listen to that song and not picture Grace on the B3, Scotty doing all of the electric solos and Benny on the acoustic. It should be this year's "Crazy On You".

Wow ... yeah, I can totally see that. She'd have to do something more interesting with the vocals on that song, but I definitely agree on the intrumental side of it. Used to be a big Boston fan back in the day.

I'd love to see GPN cover the Eric Clapton song "Tell The Truth"

[jbaum]

Yeah, jeez it's a geez -

Goin' way back, Spirit's I Got A Line On You (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bs7qUw3cuYc). And GPN's about the first voice and band I've heard in the last twenty years who could do right by a lot of Lone Justice - Sweet, Sweet Baby;Ways To be Wicked; I Found Love; maybe even Workin' Late or Wait Til We Get Home, just for fun...

[Karen]

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts – Pretty Vacant (Sex Pistols)

--> album version <--

[toofarnorth]

Was looking for the song and came across this live version.
By the time I started the 3rd replay, I was imagining Grace at the B3, guitar work at ~2:45 with Scott and Benny . . .
Filing under: if wishes were horses

[tbaron]

Always loved this! Horns would be a challenge but could be replaced by Guitar duels. Very B-3 heavy too. Grace's vocals would be tremendous! Perfect encore!
St. Louis crowds would love the Chuck Berry Little Queenie bit!

[JSJoyce]

When they make it back to Colorado or Washington State, I'd love to see them pull out "I Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)". And have everybody in the venue spark up a joint the size of the one Gregory Hines rolls in "History Of The World Part 1".
