It struck me that I need some quiet guitar music, for the evenings. Something like Broken Social Scene's 'All My Friends'; a few guitars, no percussion or other instruments and a simple melody. Maybe some quiet vocals, but nothing loud.
I prefer post/indie rock above Jazzy stuff, but musicians like Charlie Hunter are fine too. No metal, sorry guys. Can anyone recommend me something?
Quiet guitar music?

One of my favourites has always been [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concierto_de_Aranjuez"]Concierto de Aranjuez[/url] by Joaquín Rodrigo.
I know there are some excellent recordings of this composition on classical guitar (without the orchestra), but at the moment I can't recall the one I'm trying to think of.
It may not be quite what you are looking for, I'm not sure, but it is a beautiful piece of music.

I recommend his CD, if you like that song. You can find it all on youtube I think.

I found a bit of that Concierto de Aranjuez on Youtube too, sounds nice but I don't think it's my thing. For further reference, Fiberfar is right on the money with Andy Mckee, that is exactly the kind of music I'm looking for. Uh.. and that harp guitar is just.. wow. Thanks, I'll see if I can find more of that.
Keep it coming, please.

You should probably check out some songs by Don Ross as well then. His style of play is very similar to Andy McKee's.

That's good too, indeed. Do you know something a little more down-tempo? The kind of thing you want to listen to in the last hours before bed when you're just.. I don't know, in the mood for something slow and dreamy.

Although you probably won't listen to it, Virgin Steele's acoustic version of Gate of Kings has some very nice guitar play. You should check it out, it's that kind of music I use when I want to sleep

That's The Way: Led Zepplin
This for me would be the perfect last song to a really good night of listening to music with friends. Would have liked to get you a 'sound' link, but you prob know it already. Robert and Jimmie at their most mellow...

That's the way
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you, I can't play with you no more,
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me, My friend, the boy next door.
I can't believe what people saying, You're gonna let your hair hang down,
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long, You're in the darker side of town.
And when I'm out I see you walking, Why don't your eyes see me?
Could it be you've found another game to play, What did mama say to me?
That's The Way, Oh, That's The Way it oughtta be, yeah, yeah,
Mama say That's The Way it oughtta stay, yeah, yeah, ooh, ooh
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes?
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry.
I don't know what to say about it,
When all your ears are turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
That's the way... That's the way it oughtta be, oh don't you know now,
Mama said, mama said... that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah. ahh, ahhh, ahhhhhhhh
