Purple Haze and Foxy Lady would be the most recognizeable for the ordinary listener from that album. AYE especially Hendrix's version was not played on the radio in the day. It is also not often covered.

Just an opinion but I trust Joe's decision on covers. How about a best of Album. What should be on it. Maybe Joe should release one for Christmas. Then take his time on an all original new album. Okay maybe a couple of covers but like I said I trust him he hasn't picked a bad one yet.

Sorry to hijack your topic Glen but here is the new question. What would you include on a best of Joe B.

Maybe that's what Joe needs to do: cover a song that was very popular. These new groups are capitalizing on popular songs from the past. Why not Joe?

Re: Covers you would love to hear Joe do

Although I have a pretty good idea where the original post came from..............I'll go ahead and add -


"Just Got Paid" - ZZ Top


I'll second the opinion that I'd be willing to wait longer for an all original CD and go with a "best of" to tide me over......the only problem is narrowing down the list of "best of" tracks.........might as well keep all the CD's in rotation!

Good idea Jim, but the "best of" cd in my thinking would need to be a multiple cd set... hard to pick the best of the best, in 10 songs or less. Guess these are my favorites:


Woke Up Dreaming
Pain & Sorrow
Reconsider Baby
You Upset Me Baby
Travellin’ South (yeah baby…. to Texas!)
Under The Radar
Blues Deluxe
Takin’ The Hit
Had To Cry Today (with that signature Starship Trooper / Yes… finally)
Colour & Shape
The River
Wild About You Baby
Steppin’ Out / Rice Pudding
Mountain Time (slower / bluesy rendition)
Faux Mantini
Never Say Goodbye
Don’t Burn Down That Bridge
Long Distance Blues
Grey Goose Boogie / Texas sized stuffed jalapenos olives  - live rendition

As I sit here typing this…… Houston’s radio station KIOL just played Blues Deluxe, and it does my soul good!!! More news to come……..

Cheers!

Re: Covers you would love to hear Joe do

I agree with all those that brought up songs from the Allman/Beck/Clapton/SRV catalogs. I'd love to hear Joe's interpretations of any of those.  Here are a coupe off the beaten track:
The Grind by Tommy Bolin
Road Fever by Foghat

Re: Covers you would love to hear Joe do

I wouldn't mind hearing a Joe version of "Story of the Blues" by Gary Moore.  If you haven't heard it, you should take a listen.

Thanks, I really like Gary Moore, and will give it a listen.

What about Red House or Wonder Why?
