This is going to sound strange, but I think "Missionary Man" by the Euthrythmics would be a great tune to cover. It offers great possibilities for guitar, slide, harp, and even sax.

The last one you suggested sounds good... Not sure if I have it,
but I will go thru my Johnson-department...
I´ve said Soul Almighty (Marley) before & I Say it again.
Half Caste by Thin Lizzy. Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello (Leiber-Stoller).
Don+t Look Back by Peter Tosh. Any Motown- or Otis-tune.
Around & Aorund would please me in a extraordinaty way.

How about no cover at all and pick an obscure one from their own songbook instead >>

"Don't Look Back?!" As in the Temptations song that was covered by Peter Tosh in a duet with Mick Jagger in '78? And performed by the Stones in '02? It's on some Tosh compliations.

Also: I don't think they ever did "Johnny B. Goode," but the sequel, "Bye Bye Johnny" was recorded early on (it's on "More Hot Rocks") and played a lot in '72.

How about:

Dylan: "Down In The Flood," "It Takes A Lot to Laugh, It Takes A Train to Cry" (already attempted, '93)
Marley: "Time Will Tell"
Jimme Rodgers: "Blue Yodel (T for Texas)"
Joe Tex: "Skinny Legs and All"
Little Walter: "Mellow Down Easy," "Just A Feeling"
Big Bill Broonzy: "Key To The Highway" (already done by Keith/Johnnie Johnson--plus "Stu's outro" on "Dirty Work," but still...)
John Lee Hooker: "Shake For Me"
Elmore James: "Shake Your Moneymaker"
Jimmy Reed: "You Don't Have To Go" (already attempted, Paris 1978)
Muddy Waters: "Just To Be With You"

"Gimme Some Money" by Spinal Tap

"School Days" by Chuck Berry

"All These Things That I've Done" by the Killers

I could easily see them doing the Chuck Berry one.

I honestly wish they wouldn't cover ANYTHING. It pisses me off when I go to see them and they play a cover tune. It takes the place of countless songs of their own that I'd rather hear them play.
