Guitar has been through many phases in a short time.

And throughout it there have been players that have been credited with the turning tides, and taking to the next level for the world to feed off and expand as it will.

I fear time will almost forget Hedges & Kottke amidst the McKees and Mayers in the realm of acoustic guitar. Whoever controls his estate should really consider re-releasing some material . . "Artist Profile" and such . . I'll be first in line to buy a copy and share the joy.

So Love this...Leo played my 12 string and signed it....then Michael did the same (both at The Ark in Ann Arbor) just before he died. That guitar was stolen from me about 11 years ago and I still dream of the day it will come back to me.

The greats are never forgotten. Less talked about yes. but never forgotten. And for a lot of players people like Andy Mckee and Antoine Dufour are what bridge that gap. I am sure tons of new fingerstyle players have or will soon stumble upon the genius that players like Kottke, Hedges, Atkins,and Watson gave us. It's impossible for them not to. But we are now a select breed of music lovers and you have to remember that.As long as music is the way it is stuff like this lives in the shadows =(

here's a trivial remark...how do you suppose Michael squeezed that pup into that hole?

[DonMegaphone]

Kottke couldn't believe those runs Michael was pulling off.  He was all over that tiny thing like a spider monkey.
