I’m looking for recommendations for simply recorded, but also accurate recordings of solo guitar work with or without vocals. I want to try to simulate someone playing in my room, without having to force my son for a command performance. It could be acoustic or electric, and any genre. So please tell me your favorite recordings that give you the “they are here” feeling. Thanks

https://youtu.be/TYG-1VgApL8Pretty much anything from this neglected Oldfield album. There’s a lot of acoustic playing.
My B&O Icons:
Tommy Emmanuel, It’s Never Too Late is one of my favorites.
Al DiMeola, All Your Life: A Tribute to the Beatles Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, London

Please pardon a suggestion that is not solo guitar, but still one of my favorite "you-are-sitting-in-my-studio" ambiance recordings from the 1970's:
Laurindo Almeida playing Radamés Gnattali's "Sonata for Guitar and Cello in Three Movements", from a direct-to-disc 45RPM album by Crystal Clear Recordings, "Virtuoso Guitar".
Both Gnattali and the recording are well-enough known to get Wikipedia entries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtuoso_Guitar_(Laurindo_Almeida_album) & https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radamés_Gnattali
Or how about something from Sara K ——- Made in the Shade from 2009
