	Jorma Kaukonen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Under the name Jerry Kaukonen, he had been playing as a solo act in coffee houses since 1964, and he can be heard accompanying a young Janis Joplin on acoustic guitar on an historic 1964 recording known as "The Typewriter Tapes" because of the obtrusive sound of Kaukonen's first wife Margareta typing in the background.
		Kaukonen's electric guitar work was distinctive and widely emulated by other Bay Area guitarists, including Barry Melton (who is said to have recorded Jefferson Airplane performances on cassette to study Kaukonen's lead playing) and John Cipollina.
		At a 1987 Hot Tuna performance, Kaukonen surprised fellow Airplane alumnus Paul Kantner, who was sitting in, with a surprise appearance by his estranged lover Grace Slick; the success of this performance helped to pave the way for a Jefferson Airplane reunion tour and record in 1989.

	Jorma Kaukonen
		Jorma is the much-tattood guitarist for Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna.
		When they parted company with their original bass player, Bob Harvey, Jorma suggested his old friend Jack Casady as a replacement, and he was also partially responsible for the dismissal of the bands original drummer, Jerry Peloquin.
		Gradually, Hot Tuna grew from a sideline into Jorma's main commitment and, in 1972, both he and Jack quit the Airplane to devote all of their time to playing the blues with Hot Tuna.

	Jorma Kaukonen Interview
		Jorma Kaukonen is sitting on a couch in his room at the Hyatt on Sunset Boulevard, across the street from the oh so trendy House of Blues club where he will be performing in a couple of hours, when the subject of the technicality of his playing comes up.
		Kaukonen, who first became well known as the lead guitarist for Jefferson Airplane in the mid sixties, before branching off with his acoustic blues unit Hot Tuna, has always put his playing in the context of support of the songs and rarely flaunts his considerable chops for there own sake.
		Jorma's current acoustic is the Gibson "Chet Atkins SST" which he plugs straight into the P.A. Jorma feels that "the real deal" is a really cool condenser mic on a good sounding acoustic, but the ease and predictability of his acoustic /electric make it more efficient for touring.

	Amazon.com: Blue Country Heart: Music: Jorma Kaukonen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Singer and guitarist extraordinaire Jorma Kaukonen was a devoted aficionado of early-20th-century rural music long before he cofounded Jefferson Airplane in 1965 and Hot Tuna some years later.
		Jorma Kaukonen has said in interviews that this was the kind of music that got him started on guitar--that in fact, his father made a deal with him that if he learned to play 2 songs, the elder Kaukonen would buy his son a guitar.
		Jorma's warm grainy voice is in fine form and his distinctive tone seems just right for his amusing survey of depression-era songs about railroads, rivers, critters, and the tough life in general.

		Recently, Kaukonen and Casady have returned to their acoustic past and are currently touring as a duo.
		Jorma and Jack have brought their unique artistry to the project and have created what Kaukonen calls "a sonic landscape that enhances the mood of the film." Comprising about 20 minutes of the score, Jack and Jorma performed six cues/vignettes as well as the film's closing piece to be played as the credits scroll.

		Christmas, Jorma Kaukonen's 1996 Saturnalian themed CD, is a mixture of new songs and traditional music, with both instrumental and vocal tracks.
		The first, "Downhill Sleigh Ride", is a great little number featuring Jorma picking a nice "broken record" riff (the boys had some fun with this in performance!) over sleigh bells and Fred Bogert's poppy bass.
		Jorma thinks "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" is an annoying song (I kinda like it), so, in response, he sat down at the kitchen table with Michael and Ms.

		Singer Marty Balin and guitarist Jorma Kaukonen: Jewish.
		The Airplane went through many line-up changes as the band developed out of the mid-sixties San Francisco rock scene, but it achieved the form known to history when Dryden, Balin, Kaukonen, Kantner, and bassist Jack Casady recruited singer Grace Slick in 1966.
		Slick brought two sings with her when she joined the band: "White Rabbit" and "Somebody to Love." These tracks both reached the Top Ten and made 1967's Surrealistic Pillow a gold record.
