let's see.....

Sweet Hour of Prayer - a hymn that'll teach you the C maj scale, very easy.

Homebound - Ted Nugent. Very repetitious but easy to back up Ted's lead. Loosens up the fingers.
The rthym portion of I Love Rock and Roll - Joan Jett. Helped me learn muting and a little bending with some nice power chords.

The lead solo from Detroit Rock City - KISS. Easy slides, easy to learn the patterns, and the faster you go the better it sounds, but still sounds good at slower paces too. One little hammer-on to start me on those.

Currently working on:
Love Hurts - Nazareth. Teaching me picking technique with some fast chord changing.

Mississippi Queen - Mountain. Lotsa tremolo's and a few slides. Moves faster than the other songs so it's working my speed up.

Looking for the score for Rock Star - Nickleback. Have no idea how hard/easy it will be, but it sounds like it would give me good practice singing with my playing.
