Post a song you wish your favorite band would cover

Edited on Thu Nov-15-07 10:52 PM by darkstar

I wish the Dead, with Garcia singing, had covered these:

Low Rider

Funky Town
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=105

Cowbell and polyrhythms. Clean lead lines on main motifs. But mostly great jam potential goes unrealized (on the "funky town" part for that song). And imagine Garcia singing "take a little trip"?

Edit: Live and only a handful of times. For fun. No need for anyone to re-record these classics in studio, at least not IMO.
