The exploration of psychedelic depths did not
appear to suffice the founders of Jefferson
Airplane ? Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady ? when
searching for their musical salvation. So why not
amalgamate their hippy-like simple lifestyle and
folksy music with the formation of a second band
called Hot Tuna, emotional yet not so
synthetically hotted-up? Even in the very first
number, 'True Religion', whose airy, bubbling
folksy finger-picking soars up into powerful waves
of rock, the message of this first studio album
comes over loud and clear. Growling bass melodies
and the representation of a life on the road
('Keep On Truckin?') conjure up a down-to-earth
country feeling, with an off-key fiddle tune ('Let
Us Get Together Right Down Here') accentuating
the rough yet cordial get-together. The purely
instrumental 'Water Song' is a stroke of genius ?
this humming, buzzing guitar mix doesn?t only
demonstrate the players? instrumental dexterity
but also their keen sense of melody and ear for
sound colouring. No matter whether gruff
Hillbilly, cool blues rocker, or square and
nostalgic former hippy ? they?ll all love this
album. Just think: for whom else does Hot Tuna
still go on tour ...?
