Looking for an acoustic guitar recording..

Ahh, good thread I'm taking notes.

One guitarist I can contribute to this is one of my favorite accoustic players albeit not well known. His name is Robby Longley who's originally from New Orleans but now resides in Los Angeles.

Growing up in New Orleans, he has an interesting style that is composed of different flavors like a good gumbo, but his main influence is Flamenco. I 've seen him perform live in my local Borders Bookstore about four times. He's a super nice guy and an incredible talent. Check out his album "Sanctuary" which features more acoustic compositions than his album Danza Mora. I like em both!

Chris Isaak...Forever blue
stellar modern recording with incredible depth and warmth...

Phil Keaggy- The Master and the Musician, also the Wind and the Wheat

here's another vote for leo kottke. really amazing what that man can do with a guitar.

Oh Oh, I forgot, How about Bruce Cockburn! Anyone with me here? If you're not familiar with him,"Dancing in the Dragon's Jaws" is a good start. His recordings are squeaky
clean and he knows his way around a guitar.
