[Tony474]

In addition to the usual suspects (a few standards, The Shadows' stuff, "Time Is Tight", etc.), I used to do my own instrumental arrangement of "Crazy". Started out because it was requested on some gig or other and at the time I didn't know the words...

 

[brookdalebill]

I play Buckeroo, Steel Guitar Rag, Sleepwalk, Wonderful World, Over The Rainbow, Watch What Happens, Moonlight In Vermont, Satin Doll, Volare, Misty, Girl From Ipanema, Walk Don't Run, Rambunctious, Cookin', Stompin At The Savoy,Albatross, Hideaway, Wham!, Tequila, Jeannie (TV theme), the Flinstones, and 4 originals.
Cookin' is the most fun to play "with others".
It's a Jimmy Vaughan/Duke Robillard jam tune from an old (86) Guitar Player mag.
Y'all remember those floppy 33 1/3 RPM soundpages?

 

[J. Hayes]

Hey benderfreak...........

I love your list. Over the years I've probably played everything on it except maybe "Cissy strut", don't think I've ever heard that one....

Nowadays I work in a couple of different bands in which I get to kick off all the gigs with an instrumental and close out each set with another one and sometimes get to do one during the set... Some of the instrumentals I usually kick off with are........

Billy in the Low Ground (guitar)
Redhead Polka (guitar)
Cannonball Rag (guitar)
Speedin' West (steel guitar)
Bud's Bounce (steel guitar)
Home in San Antone (steel & lead guitar)

Some that we end a set or gig with are.........

Sugarfoot Rag (guitar)
Freight Train (guitar)
Foggy Mountain Breakdown (pedal steel)
I'll See You In My Dreams (guitar)

At this stage in my life I still gig three or four nights a week but most of 'em are for the "blue hair" set but they still appreciate instrumentals and get up and dance to 'em so that's cool...........JH in Va.
