Dflip Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 On a more modern vein, with one or two vocal numbers, Norman Brown - After the Storm and Chillin', and Peter White - Glowing are definitely worth a listen for their nice guitar mixture of jazz and some r&b classics. Norman Brown is more like George Benson. I ended up with the Peter White album by accident, but after one listen, it was a keeper. On the more classic side, Joe Pass and Grant Green both do an incredible job either in a small group or as soloists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fini Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Tony Rice if you don't mind getting a little Bluegrassy with your jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpines Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Acoustic Alchemy, the older stuff, with the original members. The newer stuff is good too, but it's more mainstream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFObuster Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Jim Hall Quartet-All Across The City Ditto, Jim Hall....album Concierto....not exactly acoustic but how could you pass this up? With Paul Desmond, Chet Baker, Ron Carter, Steve Gadd, and Roland Hanna all together! From April 1975. Strickly acoustic....don't forget the Brazilians: Joan Gilberto and Baden Powell. The very fine traditional early bossa nova on acoustic guitar/nylon strings...many albums to choose from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Appleskinner Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Whether you are into jazz OR blues guitar, Kenny Burrell's "Midnight Blue" is a must own. Look for the RVG edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Mandaville Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 A couple I listened to tonight you might like to try: 1) Manuel Barreuco NYLON & STEEL Guitar Duets with: Al Di Meola, Steve Morse, and Andy Summers (Angel Records) 2) Shakti with John McLaughlin (Columbia Jazz -- remastered version) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 A couple I listened to tonight you might like to try: 1) Manuel Barreuco NYLON & STEEL Guitar Duets with: Al Di Meola, Steve Morse, and Andy Summers (Angel Records) 2) Shakti with John McLaughlin (Columbia Jazz -- remastered version) StrictIy classical - I went to see Manuel Barrueco with the Chattanooga Symphony a few years ago. What a beautiful concert. It was an all classical concert, and he sincerely looked like he was having tons of fun. I have also seen Christopher Parkening, and the sound was great, even though he looked like he was fighting his guitar through every song. I would take Barrueco over him any day.

Erik Mandaville Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Bruce: My classical recordings of Barreuco are what led me to the CD above. I agree, he is very good -- a great combination of technical ability and artistic interpretation and expressiveness, IMO. Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Mandaville Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Not jazz either, but a favorite of mine -- also an 'Editor's pick' for best recording of the year (Guitar Player). This performer (Kurt Rodarmer) had guitars specifically designed and built for this guitar transcription of Bach's 'Goldberg Variations.' The recording is great, and the guitar playing, fantastic. If you haven't heard this, I strongly recommend it. (Sony Classical). Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very fine traditional early bossa nova on acoustic guitar/nylon strings...many albums to choose from. Jim Hall's Concierto is perhaps my all time favorite - some of the swingingest playing on one side and beautiful, laid-back on the other. Paul Desmond's solo on Concierto is truly incredible!
