Dupree's Diamond Blues
Jerry takes charge and the levels are excellent, and--oh yeah--it's acoustic (at least sounds it, but I haven't checked sources to confirm).

Nice early stand alone with a long intro. You can hear the transition from the old intro to the more familiar pickings of later versions.

Rollicking and ramschackle.
