RE: [Harp-L] roadhouse blues and other rock standards

[Michael Posey <harrpoe@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

We play the following songs, all of which now contain harp whether the original does or not:
Yes, its a ROCK band! Dont know if they are "standards" per se, but they are certainly my standards..Playing it like record is boring. The original artists will tell you the same. Vamp it baby!! Twist it, tweak it and make it yours! Root notes within the context of the song are essential but the "color" is subject to artistic license. Ask Plant what his favorite Zep tribute band is...Dread Zeppelin!!! Bob Marley meets Elvis while he sings over Jimmy Page licks..Brilliant!
 
Doors:
LA Woman
Break on Thru
Love me two Times
Hello, I Love you
(basically, all the keyboard solos and fills)
 
Zep:
Bring it on Home
Custard Pie
Black Country Woman
You Shook Me
 
Petty:
Mary Jane's Last Dance
You Wreck Me
You dont know how it feels
 
Cream:
Sunshine of your Love
Crossroads
 
Stones:
Bitch
Jumpin Jack Flash
Love in Vain
Its only rock and roll
Do do do...Heartbreaker
 
Beatles:
Rocky Racoon
While my guitar gently weeps
Im so Tired
 
Neil Young:
Heart of Gold
Down by the River
Rockin in the Freeworld
Outta the Blue
Mr. Soul
Cinammon Girl
Ohio
