OK, I have been a fan of Leo's since 1970's (saw him at the Phila Folk Fest. in '76). I think this has to be the greatest tune I have ever seen Leo play. Just phenomenal beauty and composition and talent. No one will ever match it or come close, IMO, to Kottke. "Morning is The Long Way Home" is amazing as is "Mona Ray", etc., etc., but I am just speechless after seeing him play this.

Wish he could match the fire and intensity he had back then. Saw him a bunch; he would show with two guitars and just blow the roof off.

That looks like the shirt he was wearing on the the inside jacket on the "Chewing Pine" Album.
I think he liked that shirt.

Hey, maybe Scarlatti would've liked this.
-
Doh I got that wrong - that was Scriabin wasn't it.
-
Normally he would play this with one arm.
-
Doesn't sound much like Scarlatti to me. Great music though, unique style :-)
-
The piece is called The Scarlatti Ripoff...
-
None of this is by Scarlatti, D. or A. It's a medley of Kottke's songs and some extra improvised stuff.

A phase shifter, probably an MXR?
thanks for the video! Just saw Leo last Saturday in San Francisco and got into the "meet & greet" after the show.
