Try and Stop Me. The title of Leo Kottke’s new album encapsulates the spirit of the man himself — profoundly original, a little cantankerous perhaps, a deep talking Midwestern raconteur whose quick wit is matched by his astounding virtuosity on the six and 12 string guitars. For the past three decades, Kottke has been indefatigable in his pursuit of a unique musical vision that has placed him among the foremost acoustic guitar stylists of our time. Or any other, for that matter.

Longtime Kottke devotees have learned to expect the unexpected. Try and Stop Me is no exception. It is the most improvisational record the legendary guitarist has ever recorded. Usually a meticulous pre-planner, Kottke threw all preconceived notions to the wind when he entered Studio M near his home in Minneapolis.
