stormshadow19 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 As suggested by a teacher of mine, I need to find some good instrumental music to listen to, while I do my art. Now, good people of JN, have you any suggestions? I'm not looking for classical or jazz, but if you have any that you'd consider good, I'd take a listen to it. I'm mostly looking for acoustic instrumental. Just to distract the left side of the brain so the right side can do art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiker Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I was going to say Satriani until I saw you want acoustic. Geez, without jazz, you've got me stumped. I listen to jazz all the time around the house, you really should think about Miles, Coltrane, etc. JMO. Sorry I wasn't more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiker Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 If you're listening to music online, I have the perfect solution. Pandora.com. You can create a station and program it with whatever you want. Program in an acoustic instrumental song or two and it will play music exactly like that kind of music from now until forever. http://www.pandora.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boozer76 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 This might be exactly what you are looking for and it took me a little while to dig it up: The Three Kingdoms http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000000E8S/qid=1140028410/sr=11-1/ref=sr_11_1/104-1594590-1320716?n=5174 This is an entirely instrumental acoustic album and is very laid back chillin music. I'm sure it would be great for you to paint to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verde, What isn't acoustic about Otmar Liebert? It's exactly acoustic, I've never heard him play electric. Along that line, Strunz and Farah are worth listening to if you like Flamenco style instrumental guitar. These guys can play. Also Tommy Emmanual is maybe the most complete acoustic guitarist I've ever heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
