Classical guitar music by rock guitarists

I don't know if there's a thread about this already, but I remember a mixed tape I made in university that had a bunch of mostly nylon string guitar solo pieces by folks like Rik Emmett, Steve Howe, Steve Hackett and others. The tape is long gone, but I think it had these:

 

Mood for a Day and I think some bits from Tales from Topographic Oceans, maybe

Horizons and Blood on the Rooftops intro

Dee

Farewell to Kings intro

Broon's Bane

Petite Etude and others by Rik Emmett - the bit from Blinding Light Show, Midsummer's Daydream and others

I'm sure there are others but I can't remember offhand. It's possible that to fill the tape up I put on other things like the beginning of Crazy on You and Clap.

 

What are some of your favourite "classical" guitar pieces by rock guitarists?

Right, of course - Steve Morse - he was on the tape! I had two albums, Southern Steel and Coast to Coast that both had solo acoustic things on them. I'll have to dig those out!
