Will's Point... ooh a REAL steel song...LOL
And a Joe Jackson / Louis Jordan tune, eclectic mix dude!
Earnest has a point.
So what can we do that we LIKE that's forward looking, or at last into the last 5 years or so?
Some I don't know, which is why I started this, and some are nice older than oldies.
Dare I say our parents classics.
Seems there is a preponderance of things from before we was born'd or at least a long time back.

There were several that were intended to be done with PSG, but they got changed to bass when they got called.
Which is one reason I am not playing with this crew any more. I never wanted to play bass on this anyway. I arrived with 4 instruments originaly, but regret bringing the bass, I like the tunes, but not as a bass player.
Also I proposed around 100 tunes, both covers and originals, and the front man never bothered to learn one. So that's history. But I do like the set list.

I want to play in Jim Cohen's band.
The last gig I played, about two weeks ago, wasn't country and I didn't play steel. It was an open-air farmer's market with a mixed crowd, and it was my jam trio, which features clarinet doubling recorders, myself on gamba and clawhammer, um, banjo, and my son on tablas and bodhran. We used the following set list:
La Rotta
improv
Stella Splendens
Mediæval tune
Midare
Bach Boureé
Well, You Needn't
improv
Musical Priest
improv
Friendly Giant -last time reggae
Rollin' and tumblin'
***************
improv -
Begin the Beguine
improv
Douce Dame Joli
more improv
Ticket to Ride
Goodbye, Pork Pie Hat
improv
La Rotta
Which went down surprisingly well. I offer this (genuine!) set list for laughs because, now I think about it, it's almost ridiculously eclectic; four 14th century tunes, two Celtic, three jazz standards, one Japanese, one Bach, one blues, and of course a Beatles tune . We describe ourselves as either "free-form worldbeat" or "medieval funk." |

John, that's the most preposterous setlist I've ever seen. Maybe we should change bands for a night and see what mayhem ensues!  |

John K, I really do like your list...
and as far as "all time".. well you got that catagory well wrapped up.
Jim's list is cool too.. I can sort of hear the band swap in my head... a bit scarey actually.
Hey Ray where's YOUR set list.
You can't vote till you stand and delivery! |

Wow Pete that is a great country set list. IMHO.
It covers so much of what, for me, is country history. Of course there are a few things from any period missing, but in general a great set.
I would love to hear this band.
Musta been a fun night.
So far I find you're in the lead for country sets. Herb you're up there too![This message was edited by David L. Donald on 19 November 2003 at 10:56 AM.] |

Jim, you would be very welcome to sit in with this group. Let me know if you're passing through NC on I-95 the first Saturday of any month- we've got a great little venue where we have a standing gig... they don't pay us, we don't take requests and we play anything we want. Great audience, too... all jazz junkies. I'd rather play that gig for tips than almost any gig I've played for pay. And... there's no steel player... I'm on 6-string.
Same goes for you, David!
Pete- I concur with David- that's a great country set list.

This is a nice invitation. Merci. A fine set of songs, and being a jazz gig I am sure there's dozens more you had no time to play.
I am having a monday night thing that sounds just like this gig. We don't even need amps. But the babes start dancing anyway!
Similar to the 1st set list I posted. I'll go make it linear. |

I am wondering why there are so few CLASSIC country lists, possibly from Texas or the southern USA. |

Al your quite right on Ricks set!
I would also like to get by Gene's neck of the prairie with a bass, and sit in on that last set...
with Jim Cohen swapping licks with Gene.
Walter, nice set there too. [This message was edited by David L. Donald on 03 December 2003 at 01:01 AM.] |
