ACOUSTIC ROCK INTROS

VA - Greatest Acoustic Rock Intros Vol. 01 CD01-06 (A Butterboy Compilation) (6 x CD's)


An acoustic guitar is a musical instrument in the guitar family, that projects a sound wave from its vibrating strings through the air. The original, general term for the stringed instrument was called a guitar, while the retronym 'acoustic guitar' was created to distinguish it from an electric guitar which relies on an electronic amplification system. The sound waves from the strings of an acoustic guitar resonate through the instrument's body, amplifying the sound. Typically, a guitar's body is a sound box, of which the top side serves as a sound board that enhances the vibration sounds of the strings. (Wikipedia)

Throughout rock history, the acoustic guitar has found its way into the rock and roll.  An acoustic guitar doesn't hide a players' virtuosity, it enhances it and the story the song is about to tell. Often these acoustic openings grab your attention before it takes you to the journey of the song. Its that intro that makes you lift your head up and listen.  These memorable intros often bring a smile of recognition from the listener and even causes a reach for the volume knob. Each song grabs you with a mellow and memorable introduction before you are transported.

Compiled here are 120 of the Greatest Acoustic Rock songs. Some are pure acoustic jams, others only start out out that way before ascending into grand opuses. But what makes these songs iconic is their elemental simplicity. In other words, all you need to bring them to life is an acoustic guitar and a little feeling. I hope you enjoy these choices.
