Acoustic Album
It would be sweet if Jimmy released an acoustic studio album. Maybe rerecord some old songs or the Buried Treasure songs.

Re: Acoustic Album
Cool idea though I'd love for it to be new, original material if he were ever to undertake such a project. This based on some of the re-recordings that appeared on Meet Me In Margaritaville that didn't really improve upon the originals or bring anything new to them.

Re: Acoustic Album
I see your point but those re-recordings were not acoustic. I would like to see a mix of new and old. It would be even cooler if the tracks were cut to include a story of how he came up with them then go into them acoustically. For me, it would be the best- Jimmy's story telling and acoustic playing is why I am a Parrothead to begin with.Tiki Torches wrote:Cool idea though I'd love for it to be new, original material if he were ever to undertake such a project.

Re: Acoustic Album
how about a live unplugged ala Storytellers? tell us the history of a song, then solo acoustic, no shouting words and so on. that would be great...

Re: Acoustic Album
I wholeheartedly agree. I love the Encores album but it still makes me want to hear more acoustic stuff. Maybe with his recently-acquired vintage D-18's (found in guitar shops in Paris and Detroit), there will be some inspiration there. The brief mention of a "Buried Treasure" album a few years ago got me pretty excited for this sort of stuff, but then that idea was shelved.
