VHM to the Dead. The recorded version isn't their best representation of this song, but live this one could really rip.

Hey, this ain't no Shakedown Street! I like it. Always enjoyed hearing this in concert.

yeah, SS is more disco-y, tho' iirc Arista serviced this one to clubs too. It was all Clive Davis' fault.

There are few things I agree with Dave Marsh about, but his line about the Dead doing the lamest, whitest covers of R&B songs ever is pretty (pun intended) dead-on.

MAW, "Be Good Johnny" gets a VHM.

Men at Work, Be Good Johnny

This song is why leaving these things to Foghead requests can be a minefield.

Of course, Good Lovin' was blue-eyed soul to begin with. What does that make this? Albino Soul?

well, actually the Rascals version was a white cover of an R&B original (the Olympics, iirc).

And it's a Beatles (yay!) twin-spin! But does that make this one number 11?

BOS for "Good Morning". It's quite a composition and production too.

My personal request (which I don't think was duplicated) is Jefferson Airplane's Good Shepherd. Slim chance, since I just requested it about 20 minutes ago, but you never know.
Woulda been sweet.
