The best acoustic guitar recordings??

Julian Bream "Popular Classics For The Spanish Guitar" is a landmark recording, artistically and sonically. If you can find it, the three-LP set "Flamenco Guitar" by Manitas De Plata (Classics Record Library) is stunning. It doesn't appear to be available on CD.

Ed Gerhard - Live Album

Anything with Antonio Forcione, the "Hendrix of the acoustic guitar". My personal favorite is "Live!" (on the Naim Label: http://www.thenaimlabel.com/)

Something quite special: Wulfin Lieske, "What about this Mr. Tarrega?" (Tacet 65) on which Lieske plays 7 historical guitars made between 1856 and 1958.

Very good stuff also on Stockfisch Records, master engineer Guenter Pauler being an acoustic guitar aficionado himself (check the samples on http://www.stockfisch-records.de/stckff/sf_stockfisch_e.html )

3 guitars on Chesky Records SACD and CD both sound excellent.
