Howling Wolf’s “Killing Floor”, or "Ramble On’'.
Pride and Joy - SRV and Double Trouble
Watermelon Man - Herbie Hancock
It’s never happened, but if it did it would be Time Is Tight (Booker T. & the M.G.'s).
What??? No Billie Jean listed by anyone???
Let Your Love Flow by the Bellamy Brothers
Bus Stop by the Hollies
Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac
My Back Pages by Dylan
All music I’m currently gigging with and that I remember!
I did!
Ok kind of as a joke but still
Allow me to add:
Mission Impossible TV Theme song - simple and recognizable
25 or 6 to 4 - Chicago
This is a good one.
Also, if picking, I like to do the guitar part of the Bond theme.
I play a mean “Mary Had a Little Lamb”…
I know it’s the 80’s kid in me, but I love ripping the opening to GnR’s “Sweet Child O’ Mine”. It’s hackneyed but awesome. My brother can do the rhythm bit on the guitar now so we’re starting to sound like we know what we’re doing. I do do the Billie Jean bass line too. I just drop the opening F# an octave to the 2nd fret of the E string. It sounds deeper and the contrast is nicer with the bars that start on the G string too. Some Bob Marley (Stir It Up, I Shot the Sherriff, etc.) and throw in some songs that you’re working on (I’m still building a play library; it’s helping with my technique so that’s a plus, and it’s fun practice). For some reason I enjoy playing “Beds Are Burning” by Midnight Oil; it’s easy so there’s no pressure and it’s catchy. The Beverly Hills Cop theme is recognizable and a lot of Hip Hop/Rap bass lines (Tupac, Biggie, anything from Chronic 2001, “I Got 5 On It”, etc.) are nice because you can just play it on a phone or speaker and then people will like the extra bass. I need to get better at funk and slap because I want to play that too but for now Larry Graham and Bootsy Collins aren’t unlockable characters. I need more experience points. Ha ha.
I usually bust out Tommy the cat or is it Luck. Then I immediately wake up and go with something I can play my girl, thunderstruck. Lmao
For the Love of Money - OJs
Pusherman - Curtis Mayfield
As a total newbie, the one riff I have learned so far is from the Animals “We got to get out of this place”. Fortunately, no one has posed the question yet, much to my relief.
It’s not there yet but I want it to be Spybreak! by Propellerheads… otherwise known as The Matrix Lobby scene .

Danke schön @Whying_Dutchman.
Great hat btw!
That’s my “I’m cool in America hat!” - purchased in the USA and used on every road trip ever since.
And please don’t “danke schön” me. That’s German - I’m Dutch. We are the cool neighbours of Germany.
Ok, except when I can “gracias” you, which is basically the same
Ah… apologies. Hamburg threw me off.
Thanks for the link tho.
I’m good with any version of thanks
