Definitely some of the songs already mentioned, especially "Oh, In the Morning", but also, how about
"Tzena, Tzena, Tzena", "Stealin' ", and "Ocean Crossing".

Arlo, Ray Stevens, Jimmy Buffet and Willie Nelson..... wearing tool belts, hard hats, leather chaps and Indian Feathers?

Oh Lordy.....(I think I need a dramamine). :shock:

Well, I think that approach might be kinda derivative. I was really hoping more for a creative reinterpretation -- maybe a family a cappella approach. Though, having now check Youtube I can say there is no shortage of creative reinterpretations out there...

For a Woody song

I would like to hear you interpret some of the Mermaid Avenue material

I like way over yonder in a minor key but there is plenty of good stuff there.

I think they are doing Hoodoo Voodoo.

Now that sounds eclectic!

They did Hoodoo Voodoo at Clearwater -- Krishna Guthrie did the lead. He's got quite a voice. They also did "Birds and Ships" and maybe the one about "Airline to Heaven" (I know they do the latter, but can't remember if they did it at Clearwater.)

Anyway, nevermind that, I had an epiphany tonight. Well, two:

1. OH MOM. Oh yes, please.

2. Garden Song.
