What's your favorite guitar shop music?
I need to upgrade my tune library with some really good acoustic guitar music to inspire me while working in the shop, and I'd appreciate some recommendations. I have to confess I'm pretty ignorant about artists and styles but I like a wide variety so who's your favorite and why?

Stefan Grossman, David Grier, Laurence Juber, Phil Keaggy, Peter Finger, Tommy Emmanuel, Duck Baker, Pierre Bensusan (not the vocals, they drive me nuts), Michael Hedges, Alex DeGrassi, in no particular order.
I like 'naked guitar' (which is also the name of a great album by Laurence Juber) - no chorus, no slap delay etc - which almost takes Keaggy out of the picture. But his music is so tasty I give him a pass. David Grier is a flatpicker who has one album at least that features just him - it's called "I've Got the House to Myself", and you won't find better picking anywhere imo.
The rest for various reasons, most are naked. :-)

I cruise You Tube for videos that I like, load them into Premier Pro, then strip out the sound into whatever format I want for my CDs.
Dream Guitars has many good ones. So do Premier Guitar and Gourmet Guitars.

Youtube Ana Vidovic. If I could be a guitar I would want to be hers. Great Classical guitar.

Thanks, I'll check these out. "Naked guitar" is definitely my preference. I hadn't thought about YouTube, lots of stuff outside the mainstream there which is definitely interesting to me.
