08 Feb 00 - 08:05 PM (#175283) Subject: Suggest a 'dream' songlist From: GUEST,Andy Hi ! Starting a new accoustic american folk band. One accoustic guitar, one slide guitar, bass and banjo. Banjo is prominent as are the vocals...so rich harmony is preferable. I like Seeger, The Weavers and Kingston trio stuff but I am not familiar with the genre enough to make an informed choice. I should expect 20 to 30 tunes will do the trick. Gonna play for fun then try to bring the music to the young and old. |

Three Score and Ten Rolling In My Sweet Baby's Arms Little Maggie Darling Corey Long Black Veil May the Circle Be Unbroken So Long, It's Been Good to Know You A Capital Ship for an Ocean Trip Follow the Drinking Gourd Kisses Sweeter Than Wine The Girl with the Nut-Brown Hair The Moonshiner Copper Kettle These are all well known and will probably get young and old singing along, provide a varied tempo and cover a range of origins. Just as a sorta startin' up list. A |

There are some open mikes I dream of taking over down here (the singer-songwriters are thick as flies) There are also occasionally (too occasionally) music parties that happen. I'll keep you posted.
