Ryan Adams' "Heartbreaker" is probably my favourite acoustic album.

Here is one of my favourites off that album:

Year-2 ago I found at random these acoustic songs & liked:

Flight of the Conchords - If You're into It
Linda Perhacs - Call of the River
Linda Perhacs - Sandy Toes

Her album "Parallelograms" is worth checking out. She released it in 1970, but it didn't do well. Few decades later it gets sudden chic & she now is a big deal (all that time she's been a dentist, still is). I think she has pleasant voice & some of tracks sound interesting.

Full album:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXBd-SjQxpQ

Along with stidio cats, Linda added some touches/fx & there are moments when you can hear trombone, f.inst. Still, it's done with guitar, mainly.

Short notice: the cat you see to the left is the best. Not counting your indoor cat who might have habit sitting at your left side when you post at SmileySmile.

Who is Lucille Ball & Vivian Vance Duet Fan Club CEO? Btw, such Club exists?

Sad to say, John Renbourn died yesterday. R.I.P., sir.
