What's fun with these is that the rythm parts are more than just strumming chords, there are riff involved.

Life in the Fast Lane and Carry on My Wayward Son are both available here as lessons.

The Eagles are usually pretty good. I'm not sure if I've heard Life in the Fast Lane, though. Got to fix that... I don't really know Kansas or Rush, though, so I have no clue what "style" of music they are.

A couple of other songs I plan on learning the Rhythm for sometime (Lead comes later, unless the solo is easy enough) are:
Cryin' (Aerosmith)
Ragdoll (Aerosmith)
Dude (Looks Like A Lady) (Aerosmith)
You Shook Me All Night Long (AC/DC)
Father And Son (Cat Stevens) (Acoustic)
Rocket Queen (Guns N' Roses) (Including the Solo)
Knocking On Heaven's Door (Guns N' Roses version)
14 Years (Guns N' Roses)
Welcome To The Jungle (Guns N' Roses) (Lead, not only Rhythm for this one)
Gimme All Your Lovin' (ZZ Top)
Tush (ZZ Top)
Kickstart My Heart (Mötley Crüe)
Without You (Mötley Crüe) (Including the solo because I've already learned that part and it's easy to play)
Back For More (RATT)
Wild Horses (Rolling Stones)
Burnin' For You (Blue Oyster Cult)
Nothin' But A Good Time (Poison)
Ride The Wind (Poison)
Hold The Line (Toto)
More Than A Feeling (Boston)

And I think that pretty much covers the list of songs I want to learn. I just know my repertoire needs a few of the easy staples, that is, songs that are commonly played by cover bands. Just preferably some of the easier staples :)
