INFO FROM WIKIPEDIA:
12-String Blues (sub-titled Live at the Scholar), is the first album by guitarist Leo Kottke. It is not a studio album, but was recorded live at the Ten O'Clock Scholar, a Minneapolis coffee house that had also featured Bob Dylan, Spider John Koerner and Simon & Garfunkel early in their careers.
Most of these songs were re-recorded for Kottke's third album Circle Round The Sun. This album, on Oblivion Records, is out of print and has not been re-issued on CD.
Track listing (with Kottke's notes)[edit]Side one "If Momma Knew" – 2:08 (One of the first songs I wrote. The second actually, around 1962. At the time I considered evil the only virtue worth cultivating.) "So Cold in China" – 4:06 (The title lyric and, consequently, the idea for the song were stolen from somebody who sang at the Ontario Place in Washington when John Hurt worked there.) "Furry Jane" – 2:01 (There's not much to say about this one. Its origin was in a couple of nightmares, one of which nearly got me.) "Circle 'Round the Sun" – 3:03 (The majority of the lyrics are traditional. Another early song.) "Sweet Louise" – 3:17 "The Prodigal Grave" – 3:01 (This was written in a fit of terror while trying to calm down. It originally contained many more verses which later served only to confuse, so they were discarded.) [edit]Side two "Easter and the Sargasso Sea" – 2:28 (Columbus got stuck in this sea of weeds. There was no wind. Johnny Quest often goes there on business. Consequently resurrection here is not only promising but necessary.) "Sunrise" – 2:37 "Living in the Country" (Pete Seeger) – 1:21 (Seeger's great contribution to the 12-string. Originally recorded as a guitar duet with Frank Hamilton. Later recorded at high speed with accompanying whistle.) "Sail Away Ladies" (John Fahey) – 1:47 (This is John Fahey's arrangement done on Vol.4, Takoma, with Al Wilson and his Veena.) "The Last Steam Engine Train" (John Fahey) – 1:38 (Fahey's contribution to steam engines. (Vol.3 Takoma) somewhat augmented and re-arranged.) "You Left Me Standing" – 2:29 (In A.) "Mary Mary" (I sometimes think people like to hear this song for the same reason they like to watch accidents.) All songs by Leo Kottke, except as noted [edit]Personnel
