Yes, much thanks. Rock songs that used a mandolin: The Band- Rag Mama Rag Heart- Dream of the Archer Zeppelin- Battle of Evermore Jethro Tull- Fat Man Rod Stewart- Maggie May Styx- Boat on the River Black Crowes- Locust Street Goo Goo Dolls- Iris- that's what it was! Cheap Trick- Mandocello, Heaven Tonight (he actually used a mandocello on these 2, somewhat similar to a mandolin) That's a good start cause I have all those on CD/download. BTW, Manny, you're a big fan of The Band, right? When I saw the Dukes of September last month (Donald Fagen, Boz Scaggs, Michael McDonald), they played 3 songs from The Band - Rag Mama Rag, The Shape I'm In, and Caledonia Mission. Boz Scaggs sang lead on all 3, I think - sounded pretty good. wHAT THE F**k- Seahawks won?? geez, that's gotta be one of the biggest upsets in NFL playoff history.
Mad Season - River Of Deceit Screaming Trees - Shadow Of The Season Marcy Playground - Saint Joe on the School Bus
Two songs by the Black Crowes from the Band album, Lifevest and My Heart Is Killing Me both have some tasty mandolin.
Wow, I forgot about a whole bunch! Songs that prominently feature a mandolin: The Band- Rag Mama Rag and When I Paint My Masterpiece Heart- Dream of the Archer and Say Hello Zeppelin- Battle of Evermore and Gallows Pole Jethro Tull- Fat Man Styx- Boat on the River Black Crowes- Locust Street Goo Goo Dolls- Iris- that's what it was! Yes- I've Seen All Good People and Wonderous Stories Joan Osborn- St. Theresa Rod Stewart- Mandolin Wind Bruce Hornsby- Mandolin Rain and Maggie May Steve Miller- Dance, Dance, Dance REM- Losing My Religion (how the hell did I forget that one?) and Hairshirt The Rolling Stones- Factory Girl Lynyrd Skynyrd- Mississippi Kid Grateful Dead- Ripple and Friend of the Devil Hooters- And We Danced and Day by Day Much harder to find rock songs that feature a ukulele- only 3: The Who- Blue, Red and Grey Queen- Good Company Pearl Jam- Soon Forget

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to moestavern19 again. Queen - The Game Was going to try to get to the Byrds' Younger Than Yesterday today but with 2 sick kids, it hasn't happened.

My last post for a while- I have a major project that is going to keep me busy for quite some time. So, I needed to find a group that is very relaxing, laid back, but with at least a few rockin songs. So, I dug out a few CDs and purchased several others from.... The Grateful Dead Anthem of the Sun Anoxoma Workingman's Dead American Beauty Blues for Allah Wake of the Flood Mars Hotel Terrapin Station Shakedown Street Go To Heaven In The Dark Perfect accompaniment to a hectic, stressful period.
The Byrds - Younger Than Yesterday The Allman Brothers Band - Idlewild South Lynyrd Skynyrd - Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd

still trying to go through my 2010 purchases. 438 songs and not sure how many full albums. on album #12, high violet - the national. may creep into my top 5 of the year, but will be hard since 1-3 are already determined.
Seriously, my buying rate is faster than my listening rate. Been wanting to post my top 20, but still have a few more albums I need to give a proper listen. Lately: Jamey Johnson Wolf Parade - Expo 86 Futureheads - The Chaos Roots - How I Got Over Big Boi
