How about a whole album? Check out Jackson Browne's Solo Acoustic, Volume One. I can't wait for Vol. 2. This was the best album I heard all last year, only vocals and either solo guitar or keyboards. And most of these songs were new to me since I was never a big fan, so it's not like Hotel California or some other acoustic version of very familiar and popular songs. I can't imagine that extra layers of production would have improved these songs.
