Tracklist
Leo Kottke
Along with John Fahey and Robbie Basho, Leo Kottke was one of the most influential acoustic fingerstyle guitarists to appear in the 1960s. His unusual harmonies and death-defying picking patterns forged a unique, distinctive style that was often imitated. Eventually, Kottke expanded beyond the guitar-hero role by developing into an agreeably quirky singer-songwriter in the 1980s and '90s, but his '70s instrumental recordings remain key items in the world of contemporary acoustic guitar music.
