I am fan of Eric Clapton and Nirvana unplugged sounds.  I really like the live stage on the spot music from great musicians.  I think music sounds more natural and detailed.  Can you guys suggest to me similar sounding music?  By the way, I like acoustic, but other forms that has sounds that I have described are great too as I am always willing to listen to something different.  Thanks.

Alice In Chains Unplugged is terrific, IMO.

Neil Young - Live at Massey Hall

Tiny Cities by Sun Kil Moon.  All acoustic-based covers of Modest Mouse songs done by Sun Kil Moon/Red House Painters guy, Mark Kozelick.  great album!

 

[Guess?]

ALICE IN CHAINS UNPLUGGED 1996 is still my no.1 favourite unplugged!

Its really funny that you guys are calling out the Alice in Chains Unplugged album. Its BY FAR the must listened to album in my collection. If I look at the play counts in iTunes, most are like 10-15x.... then you get the AIC album its nearing 100  LOL
 
I'm sitting here as I'm typing this looking at Amazon trying to find similar music... I also love the Queensryche Operation LIVEcrime album

Its not unplugged, but its live. Try Pink Floyd - Pulse

Its that good - no doubt. They were the top of the musical food chain at that time, and the playing shows why.

Richard Thompson "Live from Austin Texas" (Austin City Limits, I believe - a DVD).

As much as I like the Alice in Chains, I think I prefer the Nirvana.

Pearl Jam also had a short set in 92 I believe. When I first saw it I didn't think their sound would transfer over to acoustic very well(especially songs like Alive or Even Flow) but with that expectation, their unplugged set was well done.

Well, there is always eric clampton, 10000 maniacs and korn unplugged that are decent if you like those artist.

Also - Porcupine Tree's "We Lost the Skyline" is essentially an unplugged album, and excellent, both musically and sonically.

We Lost The Skyline blows my mind!
 
"Normal" is fantastic and I love how he messes up and restarts the song! A very intimate live performance!

I really like Earphoria/Smashing Pumpkins, its only live,
but IMO, some songs are way better than original versions.
