       I've stumbled upon two amazing albums that just
    have me fiendin for more acoustic mellow tunes...

       The first, which I think was mentioned briefly on
    this list, is Tommy Guerrero's, "A Little Bit Of
    Somethin" on MoWax. He calls it bastard blues. I call
    it straight butter. Instrumental guitar driven sounds
    flecked with downtempo beats washed with keyboards and
    such. Songs are all perfect lengths at 3 to 3 1/2
    minutes. Peep "So Blue Its Black," "Soul Miner" and
    "100 years." Makes me wanna sit out by a fire and
    roast a dog.

       The second: Karry Walker, "Lipsbury Pinfold" on
    Ubiquity. Don't know much about her except she's from
    the Bay Area. Great bluesy stuff with downtempo and
    slight jazz influences. I've downloaded three of her
    songs and am in the process of tracking this album
    down. "Fillmore" is an amazing romp driven by a great
    guitar riff, light drums and her definitely unique
    voice. "Manhole" is a little softer touch on her part.
    check it.
