I'm unplugged and need some advice..

thor von clemson · 07-25-2007, 11:42 PM

I've been pretty busy lately but it seems that life is slowing down and I may have some time to start over with my guitar. Its just me and my acoustic now and I really just need to kind of "start over" with my guitar. I've been listening to A TON of bluegrass while I do homework and I have really gotten into it... Basically anything with some good acoustic stuff (California Guitar Trio, anything Bluegrass, etc) would be good....I am looking for good music that I can listen to while I drive.

I am also wondering what a good place to start would be with me and my acoustic. I am not too good at finger picking right now, and I am sure my picking could use some work.... any ideas?

Check out the following albums...

Preston Reed: Ladies' Night
Michael Hedges: Aerial Boundaries
All About Eve: Fairy Nights Live/Unplugged
Nick Drake: Pink Moon and/or Bryter Later
Joni Mitchell: Hejira
Blackmore's Night: Under A Violet Moon
Anything by Julian Bream or John Williams

I know their a big band and all, but Led Zeppelin. Got some good stuff on their 1st, 3rd, 4th,5th, and 6th albums. Also check out Black Sabbaths short but sweet accoustic intrumental "Orchid" off of "Master of Reality". Orchid would be good to practice finger picking with.

Check out Opeth's acoustic stuff.

You've got your head down You've got your eyes closed You look so pitiful now Your body encrusted with ash Breath heavy with toxins Hair singed and matted Clothes frayed and burnt You are left with nothing
