(If you have links, even better) |

Also for fun STP doing "Pour Some Sugar On Me" as an acoustic is pretty cool.
And the Acoustic version of "In Thee" by Blue Oyster Cult. |

Not off topic, but 'reverse' topic maybe? - Best rock version of an acoustic song?
'Call Me the Breeze'. |

| George Harrison's acoustic demo versions (there are two) of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". As demos, they were obviously recorded before the Beatles' released version with EC (at least one of the two demos was recorded on George's birthday) but they were first heard by the public years later. One version is on one of the Beatles Anthology sets and another is a well-circulated boot. The last verse (not on the Beatles' released version) is the best of the three in the song IMO.
The Anthology version, dressed up with strings for "Love" . I prefer the unmolested version (but "Love" is a great show you must see). |
