Easy Blues/Jazz etc Songs to cover?

Q. Any intermediate Jazz, Blues, Roots or any of that direction of genre of pieces/songs that would be good for an intermediate band to cover?

Theres one guitar, one bass guitar, one drummer (or percussionist), piano, and some vocals.
At least the guitars and percussionist have to be used in the song.

Any help is appreciated thanks

A. you have the perfect combo for the blues, if you can get a organ sound out of your keys.Piano is fine.What do you mean by Intermiadiate, Either you can play or you can,t. period. I have played in bands for thirty years.You pick material you can play together..Both styles of music are more about soul and improv. But try Willie Dixon, I can,t quit you baby.Simple Blues tune, simple chords, Piano. One of you are going to have to have a decent voice to pull this off. But as in all music its about doing your own version of the song.Listen to this song on You tube.If you are good ya,ll should only have to listen to it a couple of times and have it down.Its A three chord song typical of the genre.the chords are C9, GM7.D9,that is if you are tuned standard 440.I play by ear as did 90% of the players back in the day.sheet for this is probly impossible to find. Tabs same way.Listen to the song this is the way it was done. Also Led Zepplin did a version of it also.Plus a slew of other musicians at the time. once you hit this site just type in blues,/or jazz you will find a ton of music to play. But you are going to have to research music to find what you want. I pull songs off this site weekly.And play it on the weekends.Usually just tell the bass player and drummer the song. they learns it off the site. as I do and we play it.

Original Question

What is a D9/6 guitar chord?
Q. I'm just beginning to play the guitar and I don't know how to play a D9/6 chord. Does someone know where I could get a picture of the frets and stuff for this chord or can someone describe it to me? That'd be great, thanks.

A. I think you mean a D9add6 chord. A Ninth chord is a chord with the major triad as well as a flat 7. On the piano, sometimes its just played as a third, 7th, and 9th. So a D9 on a piano would be the F#, C, and E. You add the 6th to get the D9add6, which would be the F#, B, C, and E.

See the link below for a chord chart for guitar.

Original Question

e a a# d does anyone know the name of this chord? the d is after the octave(13th)?
Q. the chord is moveable, and played on piano. thanks.

A. It would help to know the context, such as the key, the chord before and after. is this from jazz, classical or modern music?
Is it possible any of these notes are non-chord tones, and that there are other notes that are chord tones?

in tonal music we don't usually have chords with two notes of the same name. but If we do in fact have the notes you stated then respell the a# as Bb then I'd call this D9 flat 13 with omitted third. this is unlikely unless we're talking about jazz, and even then you usually have a third in the chord.
If E is the root then we'd have a quartal seventh chord.

but I tend to think a# respelled as Bb is the root,
so it's most likely: Bb Maj7 11

in pitch class set theory we'd call this chord [0278] but this kind of analysis isn't very useful outside of modern music.
