"19 Miles From Davis" Hones Its Cover Of "Slide"

Compas,

Here are several versions of Slide plus two other Goo Goo Dolls' songs I'd like to sing though they might be out of reach. In any event, I think you'll enjoy them. 

Slide (live in Buffalo, July 4, 2004 - the Goo Goo's hometown) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhSqYmwkzYs  (This is a great concert: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5p2lkqFwGE&list=PLG1fy9cBZp4mzSAxAR4LE7G43RRqSTsQp)
Slide ("live" in the Live Room) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNfFBlX5FpI
Slide (another live rendition at Guitar Center Sessions) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6SeTjhKryY



***
Today I stumbled on CCR's "Run Through The Jungle." 

I think it's perfect for us: 

The percussion is simple but powerful and the harp solo is tailor-made for DuVal. 

The guitar work is just right for Mark and Alger and the song fits my voice with almost no high-end stress.

It would be a great "set opener" --- lots of pounding rhythm to "signal the tribe" it's time to gather again.
