Hey guys, I'm looking for some place to get some decent tracks that include the guitar. All I can seem to find on Google are backing tracks for the guitar. Just something I can relax to when I'm hanging out at home. Does anybody know where I can find something like that?

You're talking about just listening to music? Try walmart or other stores bargain bins. Lots of "collections" from the 40s and 50s and 60s for a dollar or two. Or maybe try Soundclick and look through the blues section. You can create a "radio station" and just log on and click play. It might take some work to slog through the jillion of tracks where folks think they are playing the blues (or think they are playing well) to create playlist but you could potentially have hundreds of tracks for free playing non-stop.

If you are looking for stuff to buy, Ronnie Earl might fit what you are looking for. Check him out on youtube.

Go to Pandora.com, sign up and create a Freddie King and/or Ronnie Earl station. Enjoy...

Check out Doc Watson for some great acoustic relaxation music. He mixes up blues, folk and bluegrass. Outside of blues, check out John Renbourn; The Black Balloon, The Hermit and Traveller's Prayer are excellent. You'll probably end up wanting to learn some of the songs. Barnes & Noble down by Best Buy and the AMC used to carry stuff by both of those guys; look in the Folk section.
