Looking for an acoustic guitar recording..

I would love to find an excellent recording of acoustic guitar. I'm looking for one that is more towards the genre of pop/rock or country than towards classical. Something upbeat would be great. I don't mind if there are vocals, but my main focus hear is on acoustic guitar. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Forgot Dan Crary. He has a Christmas album that is fantastic.So does Bruce Cockburn for that matter.

Larry Coryell's acoustic LPs are some of my favorites; his 1st duet with Phillip Catherine, "Twin House" on Elektra is not very hard to find and one of the most inventive and virtuosic acoustic guitar records I know. "Standing Ovation" is another excellent solo acoustic LP. He has a live at Montreaux Jazz Fest I think called "European Impressions" that's also quite excellent.

Bert Jansch and John Renbourne, the original guitarists for the UK band Pentangle have a great duet LP and loads of fantastic solo LPs.

Their mentor and one of the finest guitarists ever was Davey (sometimes spelled as "Davy") Graham. His "Complete Guitarist" LP for Kicking Mule is astounding solo acoustic. UK pressings of Kicking Mule always sound noticably better.
