Evidently I’m too late, but I would have recommended Johnny Winters’ “Mean Town Blues”.

The next time you do this, you can put on Little Feat “Waiting on Columbus”, and take a really big break.

Follow the long break with the Outlaws “Green Grass and High Tides” and you won’t even have to come in. 🙂 Three guitars doing the definition of “cookin’.”

That song’s pure fun but even so it doesn’t come close to the Kink’s “Victoria” off of _One for the Road_, the get the kids to stomp so hard the building comes down rocker of all time. You can use the lead-in, “You Really Got Me,” to set it up properly.

Or anything else from this great album – try _Love in Vain_! (Most of the album’s vocals, and a few other parts, were re-dubbed in the studio, but never mind that.)

Throw in a track or two from the Grateful Dead’s _Europe '72_ – maybe _China Cat Sunflower/I Know You Rider_, or _Playin’ in the Band_. (Although this album was even more retouched than _Ya-Ya’s_, but oh well.)

Jethro Tull’s _Bursting Out_ is another good live album, but beware the CD version – they spliced the tracks wrong, so Ian Anderson’s song-specific patter is attached to the wrong songs. I especially like _Sweet Dream_ and _One Brown Mouse_.
