Kottke, Leo

6 And 12 String Guitar
Sealed 2011 140gm Limited Edition Audiophile Repress. Unable To Confirm Exact Press Ino. Has Different "Fantasy Records" Hype Sticker Pasted Over The Traditional Classic Records Sticker. “Leo Kottke's Wide-Release Debut Came About After He Sent A Cassette To John Fahey's Takoma Label. Not Surprisingly, It Recalls Fahey's Work In A Number Of Respects: The Synthesis Of Numerous Influences From Blues, Pop, Classical, And Folk Styles, The Weirdly Titled Instrumentals, Even The Tongue-In-Cheek Liner Notes. Kottke's Brand Of Virtuosity, However, Is More Soothing And Easy On The Ear Than Fahey's. It's Far From Sappy, Though, The Rich And Resonant Picking Intimating Some Underlying Restlessness, Like Peaceful Open Fields After A Storm. Establishing Much Of The Territory Kottke Was To Explore Throughout His Career, This Release Was Also One Of His Most Popular, Eventually Selling Over 500,000 Copies.” Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide.
