So here’s a fairly easy song from a similar guitarist:




Once you get the hang of the Open C tuning, this song practically learns itself.

I'm pretty sure Leo's E is tuned down to C.  The open harmonic licks do sound standard but could have used a Snark.  So I'll revise "odd" to C-F-Bflat-Eflat-G-C

First tab I found said it was in Standard Tuning down two full steps. A lot of others treated it like it was in regular standard tuning and since I had greater sleep deprivation than usual, I was not in the proper headspace to properly judge the pitch. Also, I'm not sure when Snark tuners were introduced, but I'm certain it was well after that Leo Kottke piece was recorded. I think at that point, you just used a tuning fork for one string and hoped that you could use frets or harmonics to keep the rest in line. Or you were Neil Young and you went with those massive Strobe tuners:
