About this album
My Feet Are Smiling is a vivid showcase for Leo Kottke’s extraordinary fingerstyle guitar and dry, offbeat humour. Issued in 1973, the album captures the Minnesota guitarist at a point when his acoustic playing was expanding the possibilities of folk-based instrumental music. Across tightly arranged pieces such as Hear The Wind Howl, Busted Bicycle and The Fisherman, Kottke combines ragtime snap, blues feeling and lyrical melody with remarkable ease. The result is one of his most admired early albums, a record that helped establish him as a singular voice in American acoustic music and a benchmark for technically dazzling guitar work with real personality.
