What are the last few songs you learned?
 

Hi,

I am looking for some new material to learn and would love to hear what others are learning.

This week I learned Laura Marling's Sophia.

Thanks.

I'm learning the songs in Richard Saslow's "New Art of Ragtime Guitar", in the order they appear...highly recommended. Right now working on the sixth one, Coney Island Cakewalk.

Right now it's Signe, from Clapton's Unplugged.

This one and a few others, played it at a place last Friday seemed to go over OK:

Probably,

The Peacock's Feather
White Oak Swamp
Cattle in the Cane
The Gold Rush

New York State of Mind - Billy Joel
Baker Street - Gerry Rafferty
Year of the Cat - Al Stewart

Cigarette Blues - Bo Carter
One Dime Blues - Etta Baker
Day Tripper and I Want You (She's So Heavy) - The Beatles
Everybody Wants To Rule the World - Tears For Fears

Great song, a "milonga" (Milonga de Ayer) written by Abel Fleury with this version played by Dilermando Reis (a great Brazilian composer/guitarist).

+1. Same EXACT thing here. IMHO Coney Island Cakewalk is a cakewalk compared to Boogaloo Down LaRue and Reagpickin', except for that crazyfast single-note run.

Definitely highly recommended!

"These Days" by Jackson Browne.
"Martha" by Tom Waits
"Take Me Home Country Roads" by John Denver

"Colorado Girl" by Townes Van Zandt
"Glory of Love" by Big Bill Broonzy
K. Lee Scott's arrangement of "Who Is At My Door Standing?"
"I Need Peace" by Frank Black and the Catholics

Yeah, I do that one too. Goes well with the Dylan song added in there:

"Khe Sahn" by Cold Chisel
"Whipping Post" by The Allman Brothers
Working on "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd

I've been on a high energy music kick lately, adding tunes that will compel people to get up and dance... no band has ever done this better than CCR, so this month crafting renditions of: Heard it Thru the Grapevine, Proud Mary, Down on the Corner. Have You Ever Seen the Rain, Bad Moon Rising.

Joni - A Case of You
Leon Russell/Donny Hathaway - A Song for You
Tennessee Ernie Ford - 16 Tons
the Beatles - I Feel Fine
Jason Isbell - God**** Lonely Love
Howard Jones - No One is to Blame
