Fingerstyle guitarists on vinyl

Hey guys!

 

I just love the prat, dynamics and sheer energy that comes from listening to a vinyl album on my setup. I also enjoy most fingerstyle guitarists, including Ross, Mckee, Mongrain, DeGrassi.... and some newcomers like Benoit Girard. However, the only albums I could find were old issues of Michael Hedges' past albums, and Songs for 5 and 12 strings by Leo Kottke. Are there some more albums people could recommend?

I would recommend putting those names in Pandora music player and see what comes up. Maybe you already like Kurt Vile, but...

Are you buying new vinyl or something?

 

There wouldn't be much I would know of, though I'm a strict Fingerstyle ONLY guitarist myself.

 

I know John Mayer uses fingersyle, but not for electric

 

I learned how to only finger pick fro watching Jeff Beck

 

Mark Knopfier

Robbie Krieger

Lindsey Buckingham

Ry cooder

Derek Trucks

Albert King

 

To name a few

 

But, to tell you, there isn't a tone difference of finger picking vs plectrum picking. It just bases down to the guitarist making more use of his fingers instead of a single pick

The Tallest Man on Earth; very potent, very good.

was thinking the same myself. i own all the michael hedges, de grassi and preston reed LP's and have a fair few other fingerstyle vinyl's in my collection. some of andy's stuff would kill on vinyl. 

my most recent fingerstyle LP purchase was one guy buttery (from south africa i believe) who pressed the most beautiful 180 gram audiophile vinyl. not sure if there's any left, but take a listen here- http://guybuttery.bandcamp.com/
