Accoustic/Instrumental songs

[SpeakUSAorDie]

Hey guys, My Dad is starting to get into more instrumental music and I wanted to make him a CD. Im looking for ANYTHING that you guys think is good. Name any band no matter how obvious or obscure the song may be you. I just want to get my Dad some nice relaxing beautiful music. I also posted this in the Dan Swano board, so sorry if you had to read this twice. Me and my Dad thank you!

Theres many more, but I cant think of them right now

 

[Nugent Goes AOL]

Godspeed, You Black Emperor - "The Storm"
20 minutes of glory. It's stunning.

Well, there's obviously a bunch of things you could pull off of Opeth records...

Also, for a more classical spin, you can't beat anything by Andres Segovia or his student, Christopher Parkening. Absolutely mind-blowing stuff.

 

[ouagadougou]

In Flames has some good instrumentals (Man Made God, Jester's Dance), and so does Apocalyptica (Kaamos, Hope, Romance)

 

[Useful Idiot]

Gordian Knot - Some Brighter Thing
Quo Vadis - Dream
Jason Becker - End of the Beginning
Death - Voice of the Soul
In Flames - Dialogue with the Stars

 

[Hopkins-WitchfinderGeneral]

Star of ash have one or two.

I would agree with dialogue with the stars.
