"When Doves Cry" and the verse section of both "Honky Tonk Women" by the Stones and "Alright Now" by Free to learn economy and how to shut the heck up.
The live version of "Honky Tonk Women" by the Stones on "Get Your Ya-Yas Out" to learn that the studio RECORDING is NOT the song, and doesn't need to be held as sacred.

Black Dog.
Dazed and Confused.
Technically, if its by Cream, Led Zeppelin, or Jimi it will probably pop up during a jam seesion. IME, YMMV, etc.
