Acoustic Guitar on Vinyl

For something a little more modern and less stodgy, try Jesse Cook or Govi or Ottmar Liebert.

To get more specific on Richard Thompson, the album Strict Tempo!, which is acoustic guitar with Dave Mattacks on drums, is very well recorded and seems pretty reasonably priced on Discogs.

Slaw -- Saw John Fahey perform at McCabes in Santa Monica.  I might have mentioned this already but he might be my single biggest influence in any of the instruments I play. His performance that evening, though, was simply terrible. Clumsy, disconnected. He seemed singularly unhappy to have to be performing live.

Joe Pass is one of my favorites - been listening to him (he's deceased) for over 30 years.  Check out some of his stuff on YouTube.
