Re: What are some good acoustic covers to learn?
Classical Gas
Yellow Ledbetter Nothing Else Matters Sweet Home Alabama (this is probably one of the most fun songs to play that is still really easy) Layla Just some really recognizable stuff that is all fun to play (well, I actually don't like Yellow Ledbetter that much, but it sounds good). Some of it is kind of tough if you're just starting. |

Blind Melon - Change
Very easy, but if you can sing or have someone who can sing, you're a gettin' laid. Also: Bob Marley - Redemption Song |

Re: What are some good acoustic covers to learn?
If you want to hear some interesting takes on acoustic covers, check out Johnny Cash's American series of albums, particularly American III. The trick with playing a good acoustic set is taking the songs and melding them to your own personal style and abilities. Cash sure can't sing like Bono, but check out what he does with 'One'. Also, check out the album Bossa N Stones 2 with some great takes on some classic Rolling Stones tracks.
A small list of some songs that I played in my bar last night that went down really well; Gallows Poll - Led Zep. Put your lights on - Santana. Spare Parts - Bruce Springsteen Jumping Jack Flash - The Stones. The great song of indifference - Bob Geldof. Winter Solstice - The Tea Party. That's the Way - Led Zep. Harvest Moon - Neil Young. Jamies got a gun - Aerosmith. Herion - Velvet Underground. Good Riddance - Green Day. Losing my religion - REM |

Oh man, I was going to suggest some stuff, but then I read your list of songs and there's literally no way we have the same taste in music. Which is a nice way to say "I don't think people with your taste in music should breed."

But this list of songs has little to do with my taste in music, but what the customers in my bar in a little Italian town want to hear. You have to remember when playing live that you're playing for your crowd, not for your own personal tastes. |
