How did Leo Kottke record an album before i was born that sounds like it could have been recorded yesterday? The whole thing is just stunningly good. "Watermelon" makes me want to smile and cry at the same time.
Kottke swings through our town once a year. I've seen him twice, and both his performances were a joy to behold. One thing you're not getting on the albums is his very laid-back and dry sense of humor. He actually sang on one tune, and he warned us beforehand that his vocals were, "not unlike the flatus of geese."
