Still the Holy Grail of acoustic guitar aficionados. Never ceases to amaze. "How does he do that?"

Another acoustic tour de force. "The Last Steam Engine Train" alone is worth the price of admission.
My Feet Are SmilingMy Feet Are Smiling by Leo Kottke
Buy used from: $18.97
A stunning live album. Gives one a real sense of what a Kottke concert was like in this period.

First album for Chrysalis. Jack Nitzsche does a commendable job of wedding Leo's sound to orchestral textures.

More subdued than "My Feet Are Smiling", but there's some incredible bottleneck here, folks.

A beautiful album throughout with many highlights. Leo even outshines Ry Cooder on "Available Space".
My Father's FaceMy Father's Face by Leo Kottke
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $3.99
Probably the best example of Leo's current style of playing. If anything, the nuances he imparts to his music sans picks is even more striking.
Leo LiveLeo Live by Leo Kottke
Buy used from: $11.87
Yet another live album, and, again, an excellent overview of Leo's current bag, with a smattering of his famous sardonic humor.

My current favorite, and a joy throughout. His reworkings on "Morning Is the Long Way Home" and "Bigger Situation", for example, are mind-boggling
