What songs are you learning/working on?

Just learned "I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues" by Elton John. Lovely bass line on that song. Also, working on "Here And Now" by Letters To Cleo. I want to get it down well enough that I can play AND sing it in our band.

Other then working on an assortment of 80's songs for my latest project - think Duran Duran, Loverboy etc

I always seem to be working on Goodbye Pork Pie Hat - Charlie Mingus about half way through at the moment - great tune - hope I 'll be able to do it justice

Just sat in for two gigs with a local New Orleans funk band... Fun funky stuff, but only had six days (among work and a couple other rehearsals) to learn about 4 hours worth of material. Some originals, some covers like stuff from The Meters, and some Second Line style stuff... Funky versions of stuff like Iko Iko, Professor Longhair, When The Saints, etc.

Whew.

At this very moment, Sir Duke and cut the cake. Depending on when u get those finished I might have a wee look at pick up the pieces

I learned Sir Duke a few weeks ago. Lots of fun playing. A few days ago I was doing the groceries with my headphones on, listening to a shuffle mix in my iPod, when Marillion's "Childhood's end" came on. Obviously when I came home, I learnt it...very melodic, fun to play:

I've started on Santana's Smooth. I was watching a live performance on YouTube and his basist makes it look so easy!
