Now then, c'mon .. you can't have "call me the breeze" without it being J.J. Cale's original now, can you ?
My own "desert island with the ukmoc" choices would probably be ..
The Grateful Dead .. preferably the first side of the "Anthem of the Sun" album (which doesn't really divide), or else something road-trippy, like Garcia's "Might as well".
Little Feat .. "Walking all night".
Byrds .. "Goin' back".
Daddy .. "Nobody from nowhere". (a couple of mates of mine)
John Martyn .. "Easy blues".
Something by the Flying Burrito Brothers .. lets go for "The older guys". For no particular reason, honest.
If we're selecting Stones tracks, I'll go for "Loving cup" or "Jigsaw puzzle" from Exile on Main St.
And a Beatles for balance .. "Hey Bulldog" would get my vote.
An old Pink Floyd .. See Emily play.
And while we're in the era, Traffic .. Hole in my shoe. and/or Dear Mr Fantasy.
Dan Baird and Homemade Sin .. "Two for tuesday".
Tom Petty .. "Learning to fly".
The aforementioned J J Cale .. "Call me the breeze".
How about Neil Young's .. Motorcycle mama ?
And in honour of just about every tranny caff jukebox in the 70s, a Quo tune .. let's say "Down down".
