I love how it zooms out and you see the tv screens in the backround focused on his picking... very orwellian but this is before the fall... also note how uncomfortable leo is playing way up high on that barstool while people are surrounding him.

@manixxx93 Naw, his shit isn't better today, it'll never be. I respect this guy as a musician. I think Lil Wayne is a lil ghetto thug piece of shit who bought into and sells nigga culture to people. He is a salesman. This man is a musician.

Matt Damon?? You mean Jeff Healey. They could be twins! One was blind one was deaf.

I saw Leo at the Sellersville Theater in PA for $45. He still has his wonderful dry humor and has mastered his skills far beyond his younger days. He has been making the same annual appearances in PA and NY. College stations in Philly don't play his music as much. Though his hair has turned silver, He still plays with the fire and vigor with creative interludes like the first time I saw him in Philly. His pioneering style is copied by many but only Leo Kottke is the Picasso of the 12 string!

@JedF2010 Disregard that comment as no-one is actually the worlds best guitarist. It's all about taste.

@JedF2010 Have you ever seen shawn lane? He's an electric guitarist and you can't compare different styles but you may just think that Shawn is by far the best.
