Leo Kottke Live


Live is a live album by American guitarist Leo Kottke, released in 1995. It includes two of Kottke's signature monologues, giving a small taste of the complete concert experience. A previously unreleased song "Flattened Brain" is also included.

Reception

Writing for AllMusic, music critic Murrday Fisher wrote of the album "... as is characteristic of his style, it's his instrumental work on cuts like "Peg Leg," "Little Martha," and a mellow version of the old classic "Twilight Time" that show the artist in peak form... Definitely recommended."
