covering ellis paul material to spread the word

hey gang,
for those of us who are performing songwriters, i think a good way to spread the word about ellis paul's music is to take on the task of covering some of his songs. i'm not a very good guitar player but have been able to come up with some easy arrangements of some of my favorite ellis tunes. i play "washington d.c. 5/91" pretty regularly at open mic nights and from now on i'll make sure to mention the essentials album and the fact that ellis is my favorite songwriter when performing his songs.
just another idea to help spread the word...
