[Dr Wu]

Roddy Frame's (of Aztec Camera fame) solo album 'Surf' mostly just him and acoustic guitar and one of the most underrated songwriters this country has ever produced.

Coconut Skins - Damien Rice

9 Crimes - Damien Rice

Farewell To A Friend - Elliott Smith

This Side Of The Blue - Joanna Newsom

Milk - Kings Of Leon ( not that accoustic :( )

You're Not You - The Good Life

Always Dissappear - Things In Herds

Please Don't Put Out The Light - Things In Herds

[Goldspot]

anything by Jackie Leven
or Nirvana's version of 'The man who sold the world' off their unplugged CD.

[Philtaz]

More Than Words - Extreme

[Mortartube]

Try some modern smooth jazz from Peter White or Chris Standring. You can hear a lot of this easy listening stuff here.

You just have to download a little programme called abacast to listen. It's fine.

There are all kinds of instruments here not just acoustic guitar stuff so give it an hour or so of listening.

[Booldawg]

yep Peter Whites fantastic!

My favourite though is 'Black Label Society - Spoke In The Wheel'

[Dr Wu]

Can I just endorse Goldspot's suggestion of Jackie Leven

...he's really worth catching live too!

[sunnyday2d]

see if you can get a copy of a cover by johnny cash song called HURT about self harm amazing.

[Dr Wu]

I know some think of him as a bit old hat/MOR but Gordon Lightfoot is brilliant if you're in the mood.

you need one Canadian on the Ipod at least!!

[dinoroar]

Sufjan Stevens - Chicago [ Accoustic ]

!!!!

Counting Crows live album (Across A Wire) especially Chelsea and Have You Seen Me Lately

[Hiss]

the two albums by 'Kings Of Convenience' - 'Quiet Is The New Loud' & 'Riot On An Empty Street'. both equally amazing for their laid back, simple, beautiful songs.
Nick Drakes 'Pink Moon' is pretty 'kin brill too
