Greenhouse
1979 Green Label 2nd Issue In Shrink Wrap. Appears Glossy, Unplayed. “A Somewhat Less Ambitious Record Than Mudlark, From A Recording Standpoint, Greenhouse Is A True Solo Record That Offers Several Surprises. Over A Third Of It Is Made Up Of Vocal Numbers, Including Two That Are Absolutely Superb. "Tiny Island" May Be The Best Track Here, A Song By Al Gaylor, Inspired By The Death Of Jimi Hendrix, That Offer One Of Kottke's Best Vocal Performances Of His Whole Career. Also Worth The Price Of A Ticket Are A Pair Of John Fahey-Related Tunes ("In Christ There Is No East Or West," "Last Steam Engine Train") That He Puts His Own Unique Spin On, With The Latter A True Dazzler As An Acoustic Piece; "From The Cradle To The Grave," A Strangely Compelling Song In Which Kottke's Singing Is The Backup To His Guitar, Which Has Center Stage Even When He's Singing; And The Slow, Lyrical Bluesy "Louise," Another Vocal Performance Where Kottke Excels As A Singer; The Playful, Delightful "The Spanish Entomogolgist," A Medley Of Children's Songs That Includes Quotations From "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" And "Jambalaya"; And The Gorgeous Bluegrass Guitar Workout On "Owls." Bruce Eder, AMG.
