However, between 1973 and 1980, Bob released three Takoma-influenced albums of finger style guitar, augmented with some nifty bottleneck: Raven, Tunes from the Well and On the Trail of the Questing Beast, all on Stefan Grossman's Kicking Mule label. The albums constituted a body of work any self-respecting acoustic guitarist would be proud of, with melodic original compositions sitting seamlessly side by side with traditional tunes and the occasional carefully chosen cover. Contemporary reviews bear this out: Guitar Magazine of London called him "a genius of melody, extolling the virtues of his haunting sound". Meanwhile, Guitar Player described him as "a fingerpicking talent on a par with anyone recording today".
