Here's 10 suggestions...
Handsome Family: any, mostly listening to the most recent, Singing Bones these days
Slightly morbid alt-country gothic folk.
David Johansen and the Harry Smiths: self-titled or Shaker
Covers of old folk blues tunes, well played and recorded.
Iron and Wine: any, but their latest is getting the most play.
Sparse indie folk.
Muddy Waters: Folk Singer
Incredible folk blues from a legend.
Nirvana: Unplugged
Heart felt and beautiful.
Willie Nelson: Stardust
Countrified versions of pop standards.
Watson Family
Bluegrass masterpieces abound on this self-titled compilation.
Robert Johnson: ?
Can't remember the title of this one, but really any Robert Johnson would do.
Skip James: The Complete Early recordings
If you like Robert Johnson and want some more old time blues, this is a really interesting one from the early 30s, Skip with his guitar and occasionally on the piano.
Bob Dylan: Nashville Skyline
Includes a duet with the Man in Black himself.
-
Accoustic Guitar - contemporary
Don Ross - Passion Session, or anything else played by Don Ross for that matter
-
I'll just list the players not the songs since they are all good.
Michael Hedges
Al Dimiola
Peter White
Craig Chaquico
Webb & Charmichle...Acoustic Alchemy
