I really like some of your choices ( relatively easy, recognizable, manageable lead breaks ): You Shook Me ( or ANYTHING from AC/DC that you can get a handle on - ALWAYS goes over well) / Heavens Door / Gimme All Lovin, / Nothin But Good Time/ Hold Line (surprise pick!). Good stuff, you'll have a lot of fun with those type of songs.
Some songs, like Burnin' For You/Life In The Fast Lane, are absolutely great songs ... IF you can play them. Songs with a lot of "parts" and "dubs" and signature accents loose their essence when you strip them down too far. Good for learning/study but, for me, not real good jam songs. Train Kept Rollin is an in-between choice because while the main riff is easy ( and a ton of fun to play), the lead parts are a Joe Perry master clinic and really integral to the groove. A full arrangement is over my head but if YOU can do it I think it would be a great jam song. ( also a great choice for a tutorial from GT!)
I'm 55, a child of 70's rock-n-roll. I remember the first songs I learned in my first band were Burn On The Flame (The Sweet) and Nantucket Sleigh Ride (UFO). My opportunities to jam seem to be getting further and further apart but here are some songs I (try) to keep an arrangement of in my head to keep a jam moving along:
Living After Midnight/Judas Priest (very easy/short,short lead)
Same Old Story/Aerosmith
U Shook Me/Ain't Noise Pollution/Lotta Rosie- AC/DC
Is It My Body/Be My Lover/Under Wheels- Alice Cooper (big fan!)
Old Time Rok-Roll/ Bob Seeger
Hold On Loosely/ 38 Special
Summer 69'/Bryan Adams
Teen Spirit/Nirvana ( a little dull w/o vocals )
Rebel Rebel/Surfagete City- David Bowie
What's Name/Whiskey R&Roller/Don't Ask Questions- Skynyrd
Throw in a few 12 bar blues jams, a little bullsh*ttin', and a couple of smoke breaks and you've got a couple of hours of jammin' (God I miss it) right there.
Good thread Kasperow - hope things are still going well for you
