Depends on what you can do and what you like. Any Hendrix is the bomb, but there's nobdody that can cover Hendrix like Hendrix played, nor SRV. We're only trying in vain to get that "tone" and sound.

Chuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode (covered by a lot of people including hendrix, but id reccomend berry for learning it)...this is a classic electric blues song, with a classic solo intro that is one of the best ever

any zeppelin, ac/dc, hendrix, clapton. thro some black sabbath in there for good measure as well. paranoid is easy and if you get war pigs down then that song is just kick ass.

blues based hard rock is the best
