The album version is a bit more chaotic but, if anyone knows how to bring out middle eastern influences through an acoustic it's Sir Richar Bishop.

 

[MonetA]

I knew you'd like this.

The GourRAB - Gin and Juice

This is nothing short of brilliant.

I have an album full of The Cure going acoustic and although the song doesn't really drift from the original, I still love the elegant simplicity. It was also the wedding song when I was best man at my frienRAB wedding:

Zakk Wylde - Machine Gun Man

I would honestly like him A LOT more if he would still do music like this.

 

[Pam T]

All that riffing was just tasteless.

 

[brianna_chelsea]

Never knew Zakk Wylde had that side to him.

Also, the Rodrigo y Gabriela version of Orion is incredible.

I will add: Steve Howe, The Clap

 

[Frank the Retard]

Not that I know of, no. There is an electric version of it on Pride & Glory's - S/T but I like this one better.

Ray LaMontagne - "Jolene" and "Trouble" studio performanc

Paul Weller - Wildwood

[Thorge]

The acoustic version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps is quite unknown, even though it's far superior to the "original".

'Epilogue' by Antlers. That was one of the most powerful endings to an album in 2009.
