acoustic guitar appreciation after all the distortion, feedback, whammy jammies,and string bends, sometimes i just wanna hear an acoustic guitar to calm down.... what are your fav acoustic guitar based songs or what songs would you like to hear on an acoustic?

Nice thread. There are many, many acoustic songs that I dig. I mean, were talking about Mr. Havens, Mr. Dylan, Cat Stevens, Joni, James Taylor, Bread. The list goes on and on. Led Zeppelin has some fantastic songs that feature acoustic. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

Really is an amazing record, something i'd never even heard of until a year or two ago. My Legacy

The songs would have been great had they been acoustic only, but the electric, strings, and horns are all sonic bonuses.  A happy face, A Thumpin Bass, For A Lovin' Race. PEACE. | |

I've recently been grabbing up tons of ancient, cruddy sounding acoustic blues ("cruddy" meaning the inferior technology of the era makes it sound "bad" by today's standards). Maybe this kind of stuff only appeals to music historian types like myself or hardcore blues fans but here's some of the guys I've been getting into and some songs of theirs.
Blind Lemon Jefferson-Matchbox Blues Mississippi John Hurt-Avalon Blues Charley Patton-Pony Blues Son House-Preachin The Blues Leadbelly-I'm on my last go round Robert Johnson-If I had possession over judgement day Big Bill Broonzy-Mistreatin Blues Blind Willie Johnson-Dark was the night, cold was the ground | |

The only album I own that's completely acoustic.
Ween - 12 Golden Country Greats Favorites include, "I'm Holding You", "Powder Blue", and "You Were The Fool". What about Willie Nelson's "Country Man" album? There's some great tracks through out the entirety of the album. | |
