you know horizons is basically a homage to bach's cello prelude #1 don't you, it's pretty much the same. well i just listened to Miss Fortune by Faust and the acoustic part at the end is really excellent, not in virtuosity but in emotion with the vocals over it. ------------- 
listen to Hella |

Definitely has to be by Opeth. I guess I could say damnation as a whole, and then there are some really brilliant ones like benighted, that one part in karma, and hours of wealth. Blackwater Park has a ton of great ones too ------------- When the world is sick Can't no one be well But I dreamt we were all beautiful and strong

With you on all of those - great choices for sure. Also, the ones by Greg Lake already mentioned (was 'Epitaph' from ITCOTCK on that list? Lake does a wonderful "unplugged" version of Epitaph on the ELP 1974 Live album).

The first one that came to mind was the guitar brake in the 17th minute of Octavarium. Those two measures of acoustic guitar are really the only great thing about that album... :\ ------------- I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t. -Stone Beard |
