Hey Guys, My band has been writing some killer tunes but we are always looking for songs to cover as well. Any ideas for '60s era dance, shimmy & shakin' tunes?
Good cd's to get or artists to check out? I can sing most anything from Etta James to Ray Charles.
Thanks,
Kizzy

Fri, February 27, 2004 - 7:37 AMWell then, I'll have to really ruminate on that one...I've got half a dozen Ray Charles songs in my mind, but you want obscure? Hmmm...let me go through the boyfriend's CD collection this weekend.
