Mikee,You know me and guitar pickers....I guess these guys we're always my folk artists.........I stole from them on a regular basis and damn proud of it!

Ever listen to Doyle Dykes? As a devoted Christian he doesn't play the usual gigs, so he's not very famous. If Kottke is the, "Where's the other guitar-player?" player, you'll be looking around for 2 other players when you listen to Dykes.
I always placed him in Rock, although I knew he was far more than the average Rock "picker", but this is the very first Kottke song I ever heard and I was a fan for life:
Climbing out of open windows,
Crashing down from broken stairs,
Keeping watch on smoking cinders,
Falling over burning chairs.
Tossed and crossed, and screwed in transit.
Broken, splintered, bruised and thrown.
Badly shattered, gale forced frighty,
Rushed across and shown alone.
Speech reduced by poor relations
strung from weeks of self-abused,
chopped up, churned out, weeks of greazy
Spark plugs burnt up power's fused
****
If I had more money I'd soon be broke...but I'd have more LPs!
I love Kottke, too..Chewing Pine is espicially wonderful, but his work is superb.
I could never get over his monotone to listen to what he said. I my opinion, he is a hell of a picker, who sings like me.
