1	6- and 12-String Guitar (1971) more music like this by Leo Kottke Leo Kottke's 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 ... see all copies from $7.94! new only from $13.71!
2	Leo Live (1995) more music like this by Leo Kottke Leo Kotke's 1995 release, Leo Live, is a welcome addition to his repertoire. Kotke has gotten past his earlier reluctance to perform vocals, and his voice here sounds comfortable and assured on tracks like "Room at the Top of the Stairs" and the talking blues "Jack Gets Up." Yet, as is characteristic of his style, it's his instrumental work on ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $12.69!
3	Guitar Music (1981) more music like this by Leo Kottke Twelve solid guitar instrumentals. Chip Renner, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.17! new only from $11.13!
4	Leo Kottke (1976) more music like this by Leo Kottke Very good guitar playing. Chip Renner, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.00! new only from $21.22!
5	Try and Stop Me (2004) more music like this by Leo Kottke Even though six- and twelve-string master Leo Kottke's last solo album, released five years before, was named One Guitar, No Vocals, that could just as well have been the title of this one. Except for a set-closing vocal turn fronting Los Lobos on the Weavers' folk song "The Banks of Marble," the rest is just Kottke and his acoustic guitar. ... see all copies from $12.69! new only from $12.69!
6	Essential (1991) more music like this by Leo Kottke Guitarist Leo Kottke has earned a reputation as a premier finger-picker, slide master, and 12-string virtuoso. The proof is in this 22-track, 70-minute collection, culled from five albums released between 1976-83. Roundup Newsletter, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.56! new only from $11.13!
7	Sounds of Wood and Steel (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Conceived as a tribute to Taylor guitars, this recording manages to transcend any stereotypes of projects dedicated to the advancement of a business principle or product. That's due to the quality of the performers, the pieces they play, and the passion they bring to them. There's really not a misstep in the bunch. Guitar slingers from Russ ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $11.06!
8	Masters of Acoustic Guitar (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Masters of Acoustic Guitar is a fine collection of exceptional acoustic guitarists who favor the luxurious textures of contemporary instrumental and new age music. While this music will be a little bland for some tastes, there's a lot of subtlety and variety within this music, from the folk stylings of Leo Kottke to the jazzier Billy McLaughlin ... see all copies from $14.83! new only from $14.83!
9	Greenhouse (1972) more music like this by Leo Kottke A somewhat less ambitious record than Mudlark, from a recording standpoint, Greenhouse is a true solo record that offers several surprises. Over a third of it is made up of vocal numbers, including two that are absolutely superb. "Tiny Island" may be the best track here, a song by Al Gaylor, inspired by the death of Jimi Hendrix, that offer one of ... see all copies from $10.21! new only from $27.63!
10	Sixty Six Steps (2005) more music like this by Leo Kottke & Mike Gordon The second collaboration of Leo Kottke with ex-Phish bassist Mike Gordon finds the duo exploring breezy Caribbean sounds, with a few surprise covers. The musicians work wonderfully together, with Gordon's meaty yet malleable bass grounding and darting around Kottke's distinctive and agile fingerpicked lines. Percussion reinforces the island sound ... see all copies from $16.59! new only from $16.59!
11 view cover	My Feet Are Smiling (1973) more music like this by Leo Kottke The prodigious technique, deadpan sense of humor, and infamous singing are all evident less than a minute into the opening tune. Performing solo and playing more slide guitar than usual, Kottke wows a supportive hometown audience in Minneapolis with some of the finest playing of his career. That's saying a lot. Sensational one moment and ... see all copies from $9.89! new only from $14.03!
12 view cover	A Shout Toward Noon (1986) more music like this by Leo Kottke Though the opening cuts are typical Leo Kottke instrumentals -- bouncy guitar pieces with nods to jazz, folk, and blues -- A Shout Toward Noon is dominated by more moody, somber tunes. In some cases these are in bright folk territory -- "Four Four North" has the tense, repetitive activity of a Hitchcock soundtrack and features some unusual guitar ... see all copies from $8.00!
13 view cover	The Carols of Christmas, Vol. 2: A Windham Hill Sampler (1997) more music like this by Various Artists This set of mostly guitar versions of holiday favorites is a bit different from what one might expect, primarily because the roster isn't what one would expect from Windham Hill. Sure, there's Liz Story and Jim Brickman doing solo piano pieces, but there's Toto's Steve Lukather performing "O Tannenbaum," guitar god Steve Morse doing "It Came Upon ... see all copies from $3.00!
14 view cover	Mudlark (1971) more music like this by Leo Kottke Mudlark rates highly on many a Kottke fan's favorite list. This was Kottke's Capitol Records debut, and his solo instrumental sound is augmented with the addition of studio sidemen (bass, drums, piano). His playing is superb (no surprise there) and full of youthful vigor -- a fusion of high-speed picking, brash slide work, funky folk, acoustic ... see all copies from $11.92! new only from $18.22!
15 view cover	The Best (1987) more music like this by Leo Kottke see all copies from $11.00!
16 view cover	One Guitar, No Vocals (1999) more music like this by Leo Kottke Leo Kottke has always been known primarily as a guitarist, yet it has been a number of years since he's released a solo guitar record, which is what makes One Guitar, No Vocals welcome. Kottke is at his most impressive at his most intimate, turning out alternately gentle and intense solo guitar pieces. No matter how complex the music is -- and it ... see all copies from $9.37! new only from $9.37!
17 view cover	Leo Kottke Anthology (1997) more music like this by Leo Kottke The Leo Kottke Anthology is a two-CD, 37-track retrospective of the first 15 years of Leo Kottke's recording career, drawing from over a dozen albums recorded between 1969 and 1983. This has a higher proportion of Kottke's vocals than some might expect, which may mildly disappoint fans who value his guitar virtuosity more than any of his other ... see all copies from $23.46! new only from $23.46!
18 view cover	John Fahey/Peter Lang/Leo Kottke (1974) more music like this by Various Artists Not a collaboration between the artists, as you might think from a glance at the title, but a compilation, featuring four songs apiece from each of the guitarists. Fahey, Kottke, and Lang (a considerably less celebrated name than the other two) all recorded for Fahey's Takoma label, and all played haunting acoustic guitar instrumentals that relied ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
19 view cover	Balance (1979) more music like this by Leo Kottke Good guitar work, featuring "Embryonic Journey" and Buddy Holly's "Learning the Game." Chip Renner, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.00! new only from $13.82!
20 view cover	Great Big Boy (1991) more music like this by Leo Kottke Kottke sings on this record to good effect. Features Lyle Lovett and Margo Timmons. Chip Renner, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.85!
21 view cover	Chewing Pine (1975) more music like this by Leo Kottke Leo Kottke's seventh album is a dazzling amalgam of sounds and styles -- there's a surprising emphasis on vocal numbers here, beginning with "Standing on the Outside" and "Power Failure" (a Procol Harum number, no less), that show him off singing with a full band in a light country-ish vein, followed by "Venezuela, There You Go," a loping ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $21.22!
22 view cover	Ice Water (1974) more music like this by Leo Kottke This is a good record, though not the Leo Kottke album to start with, as it is not representative of his usual work -- it's mostly a vocal record, and a very country-flavored record at that, with Kottke's baritone, reminiscent in some ways of Leonard Cohen (and even moving into what one might consider Jim Morrison territory), serving as the ... see all copies from $7.92! new only from $13.18!
23 view cover	Clone (2002) more music like this by Leo Kottke & Mike Gordon Phish bassist Mike Gordon and acoustic guitar virtuoso Leo Kottke are a natural multi-faceted collaboration. Akin to the cerebral interplay of the Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady of Hot Tuna and the early-'70s rootsy incarnation of the Grateful Dead, Kottke and Gordon complete each other's musical thoughts as they joyfully rumble through folk, ... see all copies from $7.25! new only from $12.69!
24 view cover	The World of Private Music, Vol. 1 (1985) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $4.11!
25 view cover	Dreams and All That Stuff (1974) more music like this by Leo Kottke Kottke's sixth official album is a dazzling array of pieces, some wistfully romantic ("Mona Ray"), others savagely witty ("When Shrimps Learn to Whistle"), and still others downright folksy ("Bill Cheatham"), with accompaniments of varying shapes and types, from dobro to synthesizer and piano. The shifting moods make this album, appropriately ... see all copies from $11.87! new only from $11.87!
