LEO KOTTKE — Dreams And All That Stuff (Capitol):: For Minnesotoans and Kottke cultists. Also for those who liked the last Kottke disc. If you didn’t like the last one, the only improvement here is that Leo keeps his mouth shut this time out, a solid step forward. To lovers of the guitar, all this counts not a wit: Kottke remains the finest 12-string picker available. B.L.S.

NEW RIDERS OF THE PURPLE SAGE -Brujo (Columbia):: Hollywood cowboys. I don’t know what it means and I don’t really care. Back in the saddle with the electric Sons of the Pioneers. Gene Autrey movies. And these guys think this is good. E.C.
