New - LP - LSP 4550
Sealed 1971 Gatefold Original. Gold Promo Stamp On Back Cover. "While The First Hot Tuna Album Had Been An Acoustic Trio Album Featuring Jorma Kaukonen, Jack Casady, And Will Scarlet, This Second Album Added Violinist Papa John Creach And Drummer Sammy Piazza, And Most Significant, It Added Electricity. Now, The Sound Was Closer To Kaukonen's Features In Jefferson Airplane. The Highlight Is The Eight-Minute "Keep Your Lamps Trimmed And Burning," Although "Candy Man" Also Became A Concert Favorite."

Hot Tuna
New - LP - LSP 4353
Sealed 1970 Original With The Rare, Custom "Hot Tuna" Sticker On The Rear Shrink Wrap (See 2nd Scan). “When Hot Tuna's Self-Titled Debut Album Was Released In May 1970, It Seemed Like The Perfect Spin-Off Project For A Major Rock Group, Jefferson Airplane's Lead Guitarist And Bass Player Indulging In A Genre Exercise By Playing A Set Of Old Folk-Blues Tunes In A Berkeley Coffeehouse. The Music Seemed As Far Removed From The Airplane's Acid Rock Roar As It Did From Commercial Prospects, And Thus, It Allowed These Sometimes Overlooked Band Members To Blow Off Some Steam Musically Without Threatening Their Day Jobs. In Retrospect, However, It's Easy To Hear That Something More Was Going On. Friends Since Their Teens, Jorma Kaukonen And Jack Casady Had Developed A Musical Rapport That Anchored The Airplane Sound But Also Existed Independently Of It, And Shorn Of The Rock Band Arrangements And Much Of The Electricity (Casady Still Played An Electric Bass), Their Interplay Was All The More Apparent. Kaukonen Remained The Accomplished Fingerpicking Stylist He Had Been Before Joining The Airplane, While Casady Dispensed With The Usual Timekeeping Duties Of The Bass In Favor Of Extensive Contrapuntal Soloing, Creating A Musical Conversation That Was Unique. It Was Put At The Service Of A Batch Of Songs By The Likes Of The Reverend Gary Davis And Jelly Roll Morton With The Occasional Kaukonen Original Thrown In, Making For A Distinct Style. Kaukonen's Wry Singing Showed An Intense Identification With The Material That Kept It From Seeming Repetitious Despite The Essential Similarities Of The Tunes. (Harmonica Player Will Scarlett Also Contributed To The Mood.) The Result Was Less An Indulgence Than A New Direction.” William Ruhlmann, AMG.

Colored Vinyl - RRLP 2004
Mint 1984 Limited Edition (1,000 Copies) Original Pressed On Clear Virgin Vinyl. “This Archival Release Is Taken From A Broadcast On New York Radio Station WQIV-FM On July 25, 1975, And Features The Duo Of Guitarist Jorma Kaukonen Playing Acoustic And Bassist Jack Casady Performing At The Station. At The Time, Hot Tuna Recently Had Released Its America's Choice Album, But This Set Harks Back To The Group's 1970 Debut Album, Hot Tuna, Both In Its Acoustic Format And In The Selection Of Mostly Folk-Blues Standards. The Performance Also Has An Informality And Intimacy That Rivals The Debut. Casual Fans Are Likely To Find The Album Redundant, But More Fervent Followers Rejoiced When This Album Appeared Nine Years After The Broadcast Occurred And Five Years After The Group's Apparent Demise. The Album's Title Is Derived From The Re-Entry Of An Apollo Spacecraft During The Broadcast, Which Is Mixed In With The Performance Of "Police Dog Blues." William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide.
