Other ones:
Pink Floyd - Mother
Pink Floyd - Is There Anybody Out There
Pink Floyd - Goodbye Blue Sky
Pink Floyd - If
Led Zeppelin - Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You

[Fritzo]

Most of the Led Zep III album is a fantastic example of folk acoustic. Black Mountain Side from their first album is excellent as well.

I also like Eric Clapton's Tears in Heaven. The gentle chord structure of the song really meshes well with the sensitive lyrics. After all these years it still brings tears to my eyes (mostly from knowing what the song is about).

 

[IamDavid]

Of course the Nirvana album.. Then:

Creed: My own Prison
Metallica: Nothing Else Matters
Foo Fighters: Everlong

 

[conjur]

U2 - Running To Stand Still
U2 - Please
U2 - Staring At The Sun
Acoustic Alchemy - The New Edge (album)

 

Beatles - Blackbird, While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Anthology acoustic version)

 

[Apathetic]

Pink Floyd - Wish you were here

Dave

 

[dolph]

john mayer - message in a bottle (sting cover)
colin hay - overkill

(can't believe i'm the first to mention the next two)
eagles - hotel california
eric clapton - layla (the whole unplugged album, for that matter)

The best acoustic album........EVER!!!!!

 

[codeyf]

Personal Fave:

Super Deluxe - Years Ago

But I can't believe i'm only the second person to say Clapton. I could listen to the guitar and piano solos in "Old Love" over and over and over...

Outside is awesome
Creed has some good acoustic songs too... I dont like their regular non-acoustic as much, but their acoustic stuff is good. (My own prison)

 

[nan0bug]

The Radiohead acoustic versions of Fake Plastic Trees and Blowout are teh 0wn.

Anybody got a decent live or acoustic bootleg of Paranoid Android? I love that song but cant find one.
