Need some song suggestions for a compilation cd...

[glenn1]

Okay folks, title pretty much sums it up. Need some low-key songs (i.e. no Danzig, Gwar, etc.) for a business PA system - a cigar and martini bar in fact, a friend is the owner). Previously he had live entertainment, but needs some music to take him through the next few months while the musician goes on a vacation. I'm looking for nice, smooth, stuff, which will be acceptable to and enjoyed by the largest possible audience. I've already suggested some Natalie Merchant,Al Green, and The Corrs, but i need some more ideas. He's mainly looking for rock/jazz, but some older R&B or big-band type of stuff would be good as well. Just something fun for a fairly upscale and urban client base.

Any suggestions ?

Joecool223,

According to everything I've been able to find, go nader isn't a band. If I am mistaken in this, feel free to let me know; otherwise, I've taken this as an obvious attempt to boost your post count to reach "Senior Member" status. If this continues, I can assure you your Senior Member status won't last long.
