Thanks again Chio...

Here is one of my favorite finger picking songs that I can actually play:

Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You - performed by Led Zeppelin

Many Led Zeppelin songs are great acoustic (unplugged)...

If you noticed in your other thread about the best bands ever, most of the bands I listed performed songs that were great whether performed acoustic or electric. I believe that many of the great songs are composed acoustically, and then re-arranged for electric.

I love to play electric when performing for others, but when I play for myself, or try to compose, invariably it is on acoustic first.

BTW, someone earlier in this thread mentioned Spanish guitarists, and indeed Spain has produced some of the greatest guitarists ever - Andres Segovia immediately comes to mind.

I had the pleasure of seeing the great Flamenco guitar player Carlos Montoya play on several occasions too (he was one of my early influences).

I grew up in Hawaii, and also learned to play slack key guitar from one of the Island masters, Peter Moon (he had a band called the Sunday Manoa).
