Song Suggestions

Rach, totally agree and could I also add that AB are not afraid to dig out more obscure songs and make the vibe their own. Some songs are brilliant in their own right but would they suit the AB style? I sent that IG song by email Rich. Hope you enjoy. Got I'm the Man here by Hughesy which I think would showcase you and Col with some syncopated blues plus some tasty riffing and of course The Voice of Rock

Foo Fighters - Monkey Wrench

Wolfmother - Joke and the Theif

Whitesnake - Slow and Easy

nice suggestions! xxx

Raspberry Jam!

This will sound like an oddball song suggestion, but give it a chance...

"New Religion" by Duran Duran, from the "RIO" album (1982?)

It ticks all the boxes... busy funky bassline, varied guitarwork, dual vocal bits, strong technical drumbeat... there's many parts in the track that will showcase each band members talents... and very few people would realise it was a Duran track.

Have a listen, I think AB could do something pretty damn special with it... a wee bit more tempo, replace any keyboard bits with guitar...

Good idea, but how many people would know it?

I didn't think that was in the criteria, tbh.

I still reckon if you did it, you could make it "your own" and people would ask "What was that song you did?"... you know, like throw em a curveball maybe, see if they're paying attention?

It's a tough call.
Like the other day at the Cali, The Foundry ended on a song no1 knew! Might have been one of their own. It never went down as well.

An other idea would be to take a really well known song and turn it on it's head.
Which is what I think we do well, I hope!

Raspberry Jam

Personally I'd say that given every member of this band has had songwriting experience with other projects, let's see one or two originals thrown in to the mix...

Bloodhound Gang "Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo"

Needs big letters because it makes me giggle as it's full of double entendres and insinuations, and there's only one naughty word in the song... "bitch".
A good audience participation ditty
