Circle 'Round the Sun is the third album by American guitarist Leo Kottke, released in 1970.

History

Eight of its eleven songs are studio re-recordings of songs from his first (live) album 12-String Blues. Although they should have been improved by being recorded in a professional studio, there is noticeable oversaturation in many of the songs, causing his vocal to break up. Kottke has often been quoted as being unhappy with the recording quality. It has not been re-issued on CD.

Reception

Writing for Allmusic, music critic Chip Renner called the album "This is a good, hard to find record."
