Hey all,
 
The recent post from Scott Johnson that mentioned the idea of the
'Nells doing a cover of "Don't Fear the Reaper" reminded me that
we haven't done the "covers wish list" thread in a while.  I still
had the list I compiled from all the postings the first time around,
and have included it below.
 
I'll bet there are several people who have joined the list since we
last did that, though.  How about it, folks -- what songs would you
like the hear the Connells cover?  Take a look at the following list
first to make sure your choice is not already there.  Also, if it
is well-known that the band _already_ covers your pick (a la its
inclusion on one of the many live recordings that have been tree'd
on this list), give it a miss as well (of course, you may not know --
that's OK, we're an easy bunch to get along with).
 
I may have missed some that people posted recently, as well.  Re-post
yours if that is the case, please, and I'll add it to the list.
 
 
Steve-o
