Got a request for Saturday to play some.
Not really something I do much of.
As a lot of 70s classics have been requested already I wondered what the experience is out there of the most effective tunes roughly around that time.
Personally I was looking at--
Sweet Home Alabama
ZZ Top Gimme all your lovin
Free All right now
Quo Whatever you want
Walk this way
Kiss Crazy Crazy;)
Any suggestions welcomed:D
Did see some Air Guitar Friday to Bryan Adams Summer of 69.
thanks in advance

The Only Ones
D'oh! See: I put that initially, then thought: "oh hang on: they're the people that did "Flawless"...."
(To quote Armstrong & Miller's Blue Peter skit..."I now realise that this was wrong."
... That "Only" makes a lot of difference! LOL)
NOTE TO SELF: Google is your friend........
SOME ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS:
Power of Love - Huey Lewis
Smooth - Santana
Loca - Fun Lovin Criminals
Schools's Out - Alice Cooper
Boys Don't Cry - The Cure
Supermassive Black Hole - Muse
Run To The Hills - Iron Maiden
La Trisstessa Dururera (?spelling!?) - Manics
Dakota - 'phonics

If they're really into it - big drum solo's and encourage some Air Drumming going on at the same time!
IMO the all time classic air guitar track is Highway Star - Deep Purple
Alchemy

Thanks for the great ideas--as much as I love Cream and Hendrix might be a little bit too much on the night--like the idea of drumming--had in mind Toad by Cream ---but hey I bet no one knows that one( except on here)
