Why This CD Matters
Hot Tuna grew out of the blues and folk collaboration between Jefferson Airplane members Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady. On this 1972 album, acoustic blues roots open into electric and psychedelic colors, heard in “Sea Child” and “Water Song.” Traditional blues like “True Religion” rounds out the mix.
Collector Note
This is the 1988 US RCA CD reissue, catalog number 2591-2-R, digitally remastered at RCA Studios in New York. It was the first CD issue of the original 1972 Grunt Records album, and its nine-track program retains the original album sequence. The 1988 remaster and catalog number distinguish it from later CD editions.
