Exceptionally radical fidelity... sound is crystal clear, huge dynamics. Word.

Very good sonics. Played with Acoustical Systems cartridge and arm.

Wonderful album, still the starting point for anyone wanting to look into his music. The CD remaster is a big improvement. If you get a chance to see Leo in concert, definitely go. I had a great time & he's got plenty of funny stories to tell.

It may not be a high dollar collectible record, but it's a very pretty one. Songs are really pleasant, and the recording of the guitars is clear with excellent separation.

Curious to know the year of this repress. Thanks a lot

Wanted to like this album but couldn't get into most of the songs. They just sounded a bit weird and sometimes harsh on the ear.. Some of the quieter and softer tracks were ok.

referencing 6 & 12 String Guitar (2×LP, 45 RPM, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, 200 Gram) AAPF 1024-45

The sound of these heavy 200 gram records is out of sight. Love to hear the strings crunch and twang with such clarity. This is a real gem in any collection. The format is a little wonky with the second generic sleeve, and the 45 rpm speed spread out over four sides results in some wide expanses of dead wax, but neither is a big deal.

Some copies, the label missing the word Stereo beneath the Cat #

One of the greatest debut albums ever! It's hard to believe he recorded the whole thing in about 3 hours!

Surely this is the first repress from 1972? - https://discogs.mejorapp.org/Leo-Kottke-6-And-12-String-Guitar/release/1100529
