Electric Guitars For Sale

Welcome back loyal readers. Though it has been awhile, it’s about time for the list of best acoustic guitar songs to carry on. Here are a few more gems who have earned a spot about this ever-expanding list.

1. Behind Blue Eyes – The Who. Little needs to be said when the band The Who is mentioned. They are pioneers, legends and the creators of true stage mayhem. They are probably best known for rock anthems like “Who Are You” and “Baba O’Riley” and Keith Moon growing his drum set on live TV. However, while they had some off time between destruction, beginner guitarist Pete Townshend wrote “Bind Blue Eye.” This is a beautiful song that starts with a guitar playing an arpeggio sequence. The acoustic guitar work in the song, combined with the amazing lyrics is what sets this song aside from a lot of other songs the same time frame period and genre. The only black cloud surrounding this song may be the less than stellar Limp Bizkit version.

2. Name – The Goo Goo Dolls – The Goo Goo Dolls really are a favorite band of most middle-aged women. Why? Well, love them or hate them, lead singer John Rzeznik has an amazing voice and the guy can write songs. “Name” was the band’s first big hit off their acclaimed album “Boy Named Goo.” What really stands out about this song is the fact that the band changed direction using its popularity. Most do not realized that the Goo Goo Dolls were basically a punk/rock group. So when “Name” was released its success alienated them from their core fans and opened the doors with a whole new conservative audience. Though they strayed from their roots with this song, this doesn’t change the fact that the lyrics, vocals and acoustic guitar work is amazing. The fact it had this kind of impact on the band’s career shows how significant it is actually and why it deserves to be on the list of best acoustic songs.

Hotel California (acoustic version) – The Eagles. When most people think about The Eagles, “Hotel California” may be the first thought that crosses their mind. And after one listen, it’s clear to see why. The song is simply epic. But not the original electric version compares to when The Eagles listen to it acoustic style. It is an amazing piece of music and song writing. The song is creepy and dark, however with beautiful music and vocals. The acoustic guitar works perfectly for that song and it all leads approximately an amazing Joe Walsh guitar solo. The first is a great song, but the acoustic version is superior.
