Hot Tuna is a bitchin' experience. I've seen them live several times now. Mostly accoustic -- just Jack and Jourma -- that's a excellent show!!! :cool:

To me, Jorma Kaukonen's excellence on acoustic never really fully translated onto(into?) his electric work(check out "embryonic journey" from surrealistic pillow)............funny thing here, B4 Jack casssidy told Jorma of the pending airplane gig where you got paid $50 a week whether or not you gigged, Jorma had never used a pick! I'm convinced that the almost supernatural empathy these peoploe displayed on their instruments was largely due to the amount of time spent jamming on various chemicals..........

I believe thats fairly well documented....Just read that book thats been gathering dust since 1973.

Jorma and Jack have really rocked though !!!!

The only book on the Airplane i own is entitled(brilliant, this!) "The Jefferson Airplane" written by one of the Gr8est rock/jazz journalists of all time imho,the late Ralph J. Gleason..........There's also an excellent Unauthorized book on the Dead written by none other than Hank Harrison(Courtney Love's father) whci i would highly recommend to any fan of late 60's psycho-delia..............

Back to the Airplane for a second. I got to see their ill-fated full-reunion tour just before it broke up. It was the full cast including Spencer Dryden before he died. It was a good show, with a Hot Tuna acoustic set right in the middle! :cool:

I think it was their second date, of the tour, and it was at the Greek Theater in Berkeley. They were all fighting, very publicly -- Jorma Kaukonen introduced Grace Slick as "Grace Motherfucking Slick -- you just knew it wasn't going to last, and I think after their third date, they broke up again... :crazy:

Well that was the beauty and the weakness of the mighty Airplane. Their foundation was the tri-axis of Marty Balin, Slick/Kantner(my personal favorite) and of course Jorma and Jack. It was a combination while creating some amazing music was also doomed by the very instabilility of it's musical constituency to impode. I, for one, didn't even notice that the actual founder of the band(Marty Balin) got squeezed out like an unwanted zit on the 1971 album "Bark"(with the funny fish cover). Like some of the best bands, the internal makeup was just too volotile to last for any real length of time, when all their personal differences were taken into considertion, it's azazing that they stayed together as long as they did.
