My thoughts on Leo's music - it depends on how you choose to play. Early on, he used fingerpicks and thumbpick. I'm not sure of the exact timeframe, but somewhere along the way he went from that to more of just bare fingers and thumbpick. I feel like his playing slowed down some at that point. It evolved, matured if you will. Personally I prefer the early stuff. I like that hard edge the picks give it, and the adrenaline laced drive his music had then.
Please note that I am NOT saying the early music is better, just that it is what I prefer.

Ive always enjoyed the Mudlark lp from 1971. It has some other instruments on it, some classic tunes and the singing for my money is good.

Greenhouse is my personal favorite...that and 6 and 12 String Guitar are absolute essentials when it comes to Kottke, IMHO.
Greenhouse is actually kind of hard to find, or at least it was last time I looked. The song "Bean Time" is one of my all-time favorite solo pieces for arch-top/jazz box.

What he said. I saw Leo in the middle 80's in Heidelberg Germany in the chapel of a medieval (13th century) castle. That was a magical night.

John Stropes and I were teasing Leo the other night about this not-so-magical moment many years back on a bizarre TV show in Germany:
