I was listening to some old Rod Stewart songs and thought he could bring out an Ancestors CD himself.  See what you think.

"In a Broken Dream"
"What am I Gonna do"
"Some Guys Have All the Luck"
"Reason to Believe"
"Oh! No Not my Baby"
"(I Know) I'm Losing You"
"Every Picture Tells a Story"
"It's All Over Now"
"Gasoline Alley"
"Hard Road"
"Man of Constant Sorrow"
"Leave Virginia Alone"
"Lady Luck"
"I Don't Wanna Talk About It"
"Tonights the Night"
"You're in My Heart, You're in My Sole"
"First Cut is the Deepest"

17 songs, not bad.  I wonder if there are any other artists or bands that could come up with an Ancestors CD. I'm sure there would be plenty.
