Gabor Szabo - "Bacchanal" Skye records 1968 is a great one
@houstonreef Great post, great responses. Enjoying exploring via Tidal. |
Olde School - any of the earlier Paul Simon, James Taylor, or Cat Stevens works - on "vinyl"...some of the cuts that did not get a lot of air time are great acoustic tracks. This era...the go to for me would be Tommy Emannuel - does it all ...really cutting edge would be Michael Dawes....stream one of Tommy & Michael playing together is out of this world. |
jdjohn; Dan Tyminski is a good player but mostly a rhythm player. His bandmate Ron Block is fantastic player. His tasteful fills and tone he pulls from his old D-28 are something to behold. The band being relatively new, little is available on vinyl. Occasionally, some of their releases are simultaneously out on vinyl but I’m unsure of quality as I haven’t bought any. I’m surprised more haven’t brought up Doc Watson. He has a large body of work going back to to late 50’s. Much of it on vinyl. He is definitely one of the best acoustic guitar players in the traditional/bluegrass genre.

Richard Thompson - Acoustic Classics Nels Cline & Julian Lage - Room Jorma Kaukonen - Quah and Live at Sweetwater vol.1 +10 Friday Night in San Francisco (and soon to be released Saturday Night in San Francisco More about the songs than virtuoso guitar, but all the Gillian Welch / David Rawlings albums on Acony Records are amazing with demo quality sound Cheers, Spencer

These are a few that seem to always be on heavy rotation for acoustic guitar on my system: Doc & Merle Watson "Doc Watson & Son" & "Lonesome Road" - Bluegrass Nitty Gritty Dirt Band & various artists "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" - Bluegrass Muddy Waters "Folk Singer" (find the MFSL) - Blues/Folk Buddy Guy & Junior Wells "Goin' Back to Acoustic" - Blues Eric Clapton "Unplugged" (MFSL) -Blues Cat Stevens "Teaser & the Firecat" & "Tea for the Tillerman" - Pop Acoustic Alchemy "Natural Elements" - New Age Jazz Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds "Live at Luther College" - Rock/Alternative Leo Kottke "6 & 12 String Guitar" - Folk John Fahey "The New Possibility: John Fahey's Guitar Soli Christmas Album" -Seasonal All are still available on vinyl, with the Muddy Waters and the Eric Clapton recently getting the MFSL One-Step UltraDisc 45 rpm treatment. Those two are absolutely phenomenal records. The others are also great both musically and performance-wise. Enjoy the music!

@jan_mc i love Jesse Cook but could not find any LP on him. |
@sbank, the Friday night is out of stock but i just ordered the Saturday.
I would like to thank everyone who spent time to introduce me some new music. |
It is not the Friday Night but Passion Grace&Fire album by McLaughlin/de Lucia/di Meola that is an acoustic guitar masterpiece. And they don't try to outrun each other here. Unfortunately, it is a digital recording, but record still sounds better. Get a Japanese original, even better original Japanese promo. |
everybody shoulds have some Los Indios in thier collection..Always in My Heart - YouTube |
