I'm looking for songs that feature a single vocalist and a single guitar. Do you guys have any recommendations? I have a lots of great acoustic guitar recordings but most of them are just instrumentals, or feature very sparse and mediocre singing.
The closest things I have to what I'm looking for are eric clapton's unplugged album (although there are extra instruments added), priscilla ahn's studio album (same problem), and john mayer's acoustic songs/covers (not my ideal kind of music).
"House of the rising sun" from Tommy Emmanuel's "Live One" album is EXACTLY the kind of thing I am looking for, but that's just one song, I'd like to find more! :]
Something like this:
YouTube - Tommy Emmanuel-House Of The Rising Sun
or this:
YouTube - Split Series Priscilla Ahn - Living In A Tree
Is there anything else I should look into? I guess single piano + vocals would be okay too. I'm fine with the whole droning, "indie"-ish vocal style, but I've heard a bit too much of that stuff recently, so I guess I'm looking for more ballad-like vocals

) - this track has one guitar though.
