Jim - yeah, it’s a little obscure.   It’s cool though and for about $2 you can get a you-were-there experience of his late 70’s acoustic period live solo concerts.  This was after he made that kinda noisy (but good) electric stuff you’ve probably heard that is said to typify the roots of Jazz Fusion but before he made all those duo and trio records that are so well respected for the musicianship.  I run across it a lot in the bins.  
So this Cotton Jones kinda reminds me of Alla-Las and a few other bands I can’t remember the name of.  I like it.   I know it can seem melancholy but the irony is to me pretty laugh out loud funny.

@spiritofradio Hats off to your memory.

Larry Coryell / Philip Catherine ‎– Twin-House (Elektra 1977)
So, It’s cool when you read a review or an article in the respectable print about an old record you have and the writer has something good to say.  Today I read about a set of acoustic guitar records (three principally) highlighted in a piece in Absolute Sound and I had all three and played them today (the Larry Coryell included) and it was good.  
Although he might not be as crazy fast and cerebral as Larry Coryell, that Steve Khan plays a beautiful guitar.  
Turning in.  Hope you all had a happy Easter.
