I just heard the acoustic version of fake plastic trees by Radiohead on Youtube. That was damn good. :hatsoff:

Any Gordon Lightfoot song.

Couple of Don Mclean tunes... Vincent... and Til Tomorrow.

[mokbel69]

Chris Cornell - Seasons


John Butler - Ocean (Instrumental)

 

[John_8581]

Good songs all.

Mine? The Beatles, "I've Just Seen A Face"



Now the reason why I'm here and posted that:

Happy 72nd Birthday Sir Paul McCartney.

 

[Armanaeus]

^ ... and Happy Birthday to Paul!

The best acoustic guitar song? There isn't just one! It could be something by Nick Drake, like "River Man", but if you subtract the strings arrangements, then I'd have to say Steve Hackett's "Horizons" or "For Absent Friends" ... or "Morgengruss II" by Popol Vuh's Daniel Fichelscher ... shit, I'm not giving you one!

hallelujah jeff buckley

Shit,he has waaaaay better songs than that one. Live at Sin-é was an entire live acoustic album and pretty much every song on there was better.My two personally faves are The Way Young Lovers Do and Dink's Song.

 

[Rey C.]

"Time In A Bottle" Jim Croce.

^^^This.

And I'll throw in an easy gimme: Stairway to Heaven


And check this out. Cool?

Some great ones already mentioned but here are a few of my favs....

Not my favourite artist by a long shot but still very talented. Seen him a couple of times in the UK.



& a great cover of Teardrop by Massive Attack

 

[Harpsman]

Bob Marley - Redemption Song.
G'n'R - Patience
Crazy Horse - I don't Wanna Talk About It.

And a special mention to Gene Clark - With Tomorrow - fans of Wish You Were Here should check it out. You'll hear where Pink Floyd got the riff for WYWH from.
