[Slowhand] songs for Eric's next tour

[Kelly Murphy]

Richard,

Some great choices there.  Pretty Girl is a great song,
and The Shape You're In is fantastic.  It's just a fun song
with, as you said, some nice guitar interplay.  Actually everything
you mentioned is excellent especially Double Trouble and Blow Wind
Blow.

As of right now I'm going to make one of my setlists. ;o)  It's not likely
for the most part of course, and I'll limit it to 18 songs which could
change
tomorrow quite easily.  In no particular order.

01. Tulsa Time
02. Next Time You See Her
03. Double Trouble
04. Stop Breakin' Down Blues
05. Sick And Tired
06. Bad Boy
07. Told You For The Last Time
08. Black Summer Rain
09. I've Got A Rock n Roll Heart
10. Got To Get Better In A Little While
11. It's Too Late
12. Bell Bottom Blues
13. I Wanna Make Love To You
14. No Alibis
15. Strange Brew
16. Tales Of Brave Ulysses

17. Cocaine
18. After Midnight OR Little Queenie

Okay, that was really fast and off the top of my head.  I've got
to get going seeing as I'm traveling to my first Bob Dylan concert (it's
in Peoria, IL).  Later!

-Kelly
