Good call on Glenn Campbell. I never knew how good he was until recently.
I saw a Jimmy Webb concert and he played a video of Glenn doing MacArthur Park. Check it out at about the 4:30 mark. His health is already affecting his voice in this one; but I can't tell by his playing:

I've got a couple of Santana CD's but I really prefer acoustic guitar.  Are any of the above named guitarists acoustic players?  I've found solo guitarists but I'd really like to find some acoustic guitarists that play with other instrumentalists.  Recommendations?
