    Anything. Just well recorded. Thanks!

    Without listening to it all over again to grade recordings...

    For smooth, upbeat kinda jazzy stuff I like Acoustic Alchemy (Back on the Case, Against The Grain..). For softer, nylon string type stuff, Earl Klugh was great (Heart Strings, Soda Fountain Shuffle). Fancy fingerpicking with a little slide thrown in, they don't get much better than Leo Kottke. A little more off the wall, faster stuff, Larry Coryell, or the "Supertrio" of John McLaughlin, Al DiMeola and Paco DeLucia. A lot depends on what you like.

    I doubt that Chet Atkins ever did anything I wouldn't like... And of course, there are tons more -- Craig Chaquico (Starship), Michael Hedges... on and on. And that's all stuff from an old ****, not even taking into account anything from this century.

    Good evening fellas!!

    While shopping at Walmart yesterday, I noticed they had re-stocked the $5 CD bin, so I took some time to look through it. It is somewhat of a pain in the **s, but you can find some real gems, making it worth the trouble...

    I found a couple of old favorites, including this one that I have on vinyl already, but it is nice to have the CD now as well:

    Attachment not found.

    Rick theres a way around that hassel get you a empty shopping cart park right next to that $5 bin and start sorting and keep putting the ones I have no intrest in, in the main part of the cart. I put the ones I want in the kiddie seat section, I have got a lot of good CD's out of that $5 bin at walmart.The wife rolls her eyes at me and works her way over to the womens clothes department, I couldnt be happier sorting through that bin.

    My Vinyl Shipment arrived today listening to Al Stewart- Year Of The Cat, and yes Time Passages is also good hard to decide the better between the two:cool: Happy Listening!!!
