Frig. Alot of times I sit listen to the West Coast music and wonder wat the frig was it like. Like the coolest thing ever. Envy Yu friend. Lov airplane dead Santana Janis doors. Hat is of to yu
We are grateful to Jorma for his own tunes, and introducing us to Rev. Gary Davis, Blind Blake, Walter Davis, Blind Willie Johnson, Jesse Fuller, Leroy Carr, Son House, TBone Walker, Sleepy John Estes...SO MANY OTHERS!! And his hard work being in a band, or solo, travelling all over for so many years now. His farm, where he teaches and perfoms, must be beautiful. Thank you Jorma, for all the joy and light.
@Spike Elwood yeah some people knew them but jorma is like a bridge that connects great artists from back in the day to the modern generation. Because jorma is still playing their songs today
I am grateful to Jorma. He was the most talented guitarist of that time. Jerry was learning and became the best. Jorma is still the best finger picker.
i saw jeff plane in nyc 1969 while in the army....q.m.s, j.p. and g.d. have always made me feel good just like this jam.....when youngsters now ask me what it was like in the hippie days, i tell them to listen to jefferson dead and grateful airplane....
It's ok. I was born at the right time (well, a little late to be a real part of the fun), and these were the guys I was always listening to as a kid. I play guitar too, but these guys will always be a lot better than me. And you're right: this is the stuff. Jerry and Jorma jamming together with Jack on bass. I mean, really. Mankind may end without rock music ever achieving the same heights again.
@Jeff R. A Tech Guy with money and his wife, formerly married to the Airplane's roadie, own it and still live there now. It is all white again as it was before the Airplane bought it.
Mark Erickson , Can't believe I've never heard this until now!!! Wow! 2 of my favorite Guitarist. I've seen Jerry jam 44 times with the Dead and 18 times with the Jerry Band. I went and watched Jorma jam 10 years ago at a show in Davis California. This JAMZZZ!
Great great great stuff. you said it right. Saw Jorma a couple months ago at the Fillmore with Jack Casady (Hot Tuna). A delight!! Nice show they always put on. Do miss ol' Garcia.
Law of diminishing returns. . . I try to ration this "drug" once a year, so it never gets old. . . they did . . . with one 7th Chord. . . what no others could!
Love the pictures, Concert advertisements, Album covers and all the pre-1969 artwork ending with The Hot Tuna debut album with RCA in 1970! The music is excellent, but the artwork is most impressive, most I've never seen before!
Agree; love the concert posters etc…very psychedelic they just draw you in. The artwork at this time was just as important as the music. Showed them to my artist son for inspiration, he said the colors were “so crazy and bright”, explained to him the “enhancements” back then. Have to shock the kids~youngsters every once in a while.
Wow I'm only 38 but as a new gutiar player of a year and a half this makes the chills come over my body and want to cry with the talent fucking bad ass all I have to say
freaking awesome..i smoked a joint with Jorma in 68 in Pittsburgh PA, after their "Somebody to Love Tour" show in our hotel room when they were staying at the Hilton..great moment....Merle would have fitted into this jam perfectly..i wonder where he was that day.
@@markscott6541 C'est toujours délicat de jammer , d'improviser , il faut être sur la même longueur d'onde et il faut que ça reste rock en tout cas syncopé , rythmé ...
Can you dig it? GOOD! Those WERE the days, my friends! 60's were THE decade! Miss that era more than anything. Today's music just can't compare. Loved seeing Jorma and Jack on tour again, earlier this year. Rock on guys!!!!
+cymballine1 Sorry, but there was just as much bad music then as there is now; we have just tried to forget it. I give you Bobby Sherman, The Archies, 1910 Fruitgum Company, etc.
Well, there was "elevator music" which for today's youth is prolly "telephone on-hold music." I remember discussions about who was better the Beatles, Rolling Stones, or the Dave Clark Five. With MoTown hits et al, it felt like a new good song was popping up every 10 minutes. I doubt people have that feeling now.
true, but those who listened to the Dead, Quicksilver, Airplane, Mayall, Blodwyn Pig, Chicken Shack, Hendrix, Cold Blood with Lydia, etc. etc. were able to tune out all the other A.M. radio white noise that was passing for music....
Just off the hook. J to the Third Power aka J Cubed aka 3 J’s=Jerry Jack Jorma with phenomenal sound. Another must have and wonderful way to jump start my day in the morning. Thank You!!!
And Garcia...how many genres/artists did HE introduce us to? Countless! We owe these cats a great deal of thanks for contributing and expanding the culture...far out man!
I'm a Deadahead,been to a lot of Dead shoes but I've been to a lot of Tuna shows,not as many but Jorma is a God to guitar.I just saw Tuna at the Beacon Theatre in NYC on Saturday 11/19 man what a excellent show.
What people don’t understand about Jamming is that even if you know how to play guitar, you can’t jam unless you know why other people play guitar! There has to be a connection, some kind of bond in one way or another - could just even be the blues, but even if you know the form, you gotta have the rhythm forever. Can’t have the art if you don’t know the technique.
Yes just imagine!!!!!! WoW a super commercially digestible pop song may have emerged for all the mainstream pop listeners of the world yay! Or just don't listen..
Me & a bud Kevin jumped off the Peace Bridge in Nov 1973 to see Hot Tuna on 5th Ave NY. We slept in a snow bank in Syracuse the night before and hitched down in time, one hour early. We went to the closest pub for a brew, and inside were four buds we knew who were catchin the Tuna also. They offered us a ride home, in Dundas ON (Can), and the driver, Mike, fell asleep at the wheel on the New Jersey turn pike. We were able to continue driving. Mike said 'what do we do now.' I said, Poppa John is playing in Boston tomorrow night. And off we went!
P.S. The Bass is truly the lead guitar.....the backbone of the music (along with the drums)..They call it the baseline.....and that's what holds it together........
Jacks awesome. Can’t wait to see Tuna at Great South Bay Music Festival this Sunday. Gonna be epic. Norma and Jack gotta be mid seventies. They still rock that heavy, funky blues. I have seen them perhaps 40x and never seen them have an off nite whether it’s Jorma solo, Jorma w Jack, Jordan w Mike, no drummer, doesn’t matter. I asked him about it after small show in AMAGANSETT Stephen Talkhouse, probably 20yrs ago, he was driving him and jack in a minivan and gear was in another vehicle. He said, “ Yes, sometimes we even amaze ourselves”. Love
To William Nelson great story of meeting Garcia in '72, I had a meeting with him at the Keystone in Berkeley in the fall of '72, there was a girl who'd gone into labor so everything stopped me and a girl I was with strolled up to the stage and broke out a joint we shared it with Jerry and Tom Fogerty all I remember was Garcia saying farout about the birth taking place... good memories...!!!
my first time seeing Jerry G was at the Bottom Line in NYC - around 73-74 w/Merle Saunders John Kahn and Bill Vitt - you know the guys :-D and what an amazing scene to be in a club that small with Legion of Mary . Had no clue at the time wtf was about to go down - but that night was a game changer for me . Was up front near the stage and off slightly to the side where the bar was - turned out to be a great place to dance as opposed to the crowded little tables they had there - and - aside from the Hells Angels and hippies and the drugs and the eyepoppingly gorgeous women - there was Papa Jerry on stage around 6' away - he had a doob going and he passed it off to his right to the person in the audience that was standing next to me and then they passed that j to me - omg - never seemed real but that's what the place was like that nght - RIP Papa Jerry G -thanx for all the music that took me to places that'd otherwise i'd never have been to ...
Day Of The Total Eclipse - I was sitting here listening to this jam and it doesn't matter one bit what they play. What's important is it's them and you 'know' it's 'them' so you listen with all your imagination and when they make a 'mistake' you try to emulate it as best you can and that's advanced music. Driven by the souls of those you love and respect. Peace
Jorma and Jerry are brothers of the stratosphere, with Casady and Dryden over there with Micky doing the walk down a street with a pivot, just like the snare and then,- It sounded to me that someone was going into, "Would you like to know a secret, just between you and me?...Won't You Try? Won't you try?" JA.
Perfect antidote to TikTok twenty second twaddle !! Actual attention span and patience are necessary to appreciate this !! C'mon man !! Smoke that now legal weed , kick back , and mellow out !!!
In their primes they were the greatest SF rock musicians. Other greats from 60's SF are Santana, Dan Hicks, Janis of course, the Rohan Brothers, and Country Joe had his time. It is sad Jerry had to go so soon. But I treasure one moment with him in 1972 where I told him something he thought was cool and he grinned and exclaimed "far out, man!" I will always remember those three words. And he didn't care if I was a kid crashing backstage. gg
How can you completely overlook Quicksilver? They practically defined the SF sound. The axe-slinging tag team of Gary Duncan and John Cippolina were ordained by Owsley Stanley himself. I'd put them up against any other guitar pair of the day. Add in that old pussyhound Chet Powers - Dino Valenti - on axe #3, and there's no competition. Watch the Winterland December 75 show, and see for yourself how unbelievably tight and talented those guys were... and they were freakin' peakin' that night. (actually wouldn't surprising if Gary wasn't acidified that night, maybe John & Chester,too... who knows? They used to jam/rehearse for hours on Dr. Alberts Miracle Magical anti-Fascist, Rethuglinazi Worldview destroying, paradigm-shifting, alternate universe swapping, fuck Capitalism Elixir.) Now, Dino's voice is pretty much Love/Hate. It once was like chewing aluminum foil with a mouthful of cavities for me, frequently. Jarring like a simultaneous funnybone smack/rectal probe insertion. As painful as a cluster headache, a hammer-smashed thumb, and an IV shot of strychnine, all together As hard to accept as the pseudo-logic in a Trump speech or an Alex Jones "news" story. But now I think that Dino's voice expresses some serious soul, and he has the exquisite control of a Pavarotti. And I'll tell ya, I think this show is every bit as good as a sexy soaking-the-sheets-sexed-up stoned stoner-chick's super-sensuous sloppy sword suck. So says Scotty, the pSychedelic psychonaut Sunshine seller/sojourner & sweet-young-thang seducer.
Hippiekinkster Met Dino the night of my 21st birthday at a restaurant on fisherman's wharf . He was grind. He bought me my first legal drink in a bar. I brokedown the night before on the Golden Gate Bridge in my 77 VW bus. Got towed to Mill Valley, met Phil Lesh at the Circle K. Living that Marin life. Seeing Dino down and out the next night was tough. The contrast of who made it and who didn't was on display. (August 1990)
The Airplane was my first love starting in 9th grade in '69, and they have comforted me all through the long strange trip with the Dead, and beyond. You never forget the one that brought you to the dance and helped you get on the bus.
Great they were and their incarnation as the Jefferson Starship. Could never get enough. That house on Fulton street was black in my days in S.F. I guess they decided to paint it ... not that it matters. GARCIA rules as always however. Only one = Jerome J. Garcia !!! RIP Jerry!! (~);}~~~~ !!
I think this was recorded after the famous Thanksgiving banquet at the Airplanes mansion at 2400 Fulton St. Before it started, they took a photo of the partially set up table with Jack pretending to to be passed out which became the Cover shot for their first live album.
Actually it says this was recorded Oct 28, a month before Thanksgiving. Also, I believe that cover photo is from the June 21, ‘71 Grateful Dead concert at Chateau D’HEROUVILLE, France.
Garcia said he gave up pedal steel because it would take too long to learn it well and he wanted to focus on his picking and guitar slinging... he actually never played pedal that often... with that said he could play anything better than most...
I've just spent 2 hours listening to The Dead, but the clock's are running late, So I say what a perfect way to end the day ! Thanks for share It's worth it.
I lived around the corner and up the street from them 1967-71. Those were the days, my friends.
Oh hell yeah. 😎
I bet!
Magical days
Frig. Alot of times I sit listen to the West Coast music and wonder wat the frig was it like. Like the coolest thing ever. Envy Yu friend. Lov airplane dead Santana Janis doors. Hat is of to yu

Beautiful! I do not know how I arrived upon this lovely gem but I'm glad my path brought me here today.
I was thinking exactly that. Grateful..
The Al Gore Rhythms sent you here.
I found it 7 years ago, and it's like Jerry & Jorma are acting like a Jimi Hendrix experience..........
I AGREE WHOLE HEARTEDLY 👏🎸🎸👍
me too.. happy day.. jerry still one of my faves and i never miss a chance to see jorma
I have always felt that I was born a generation later than I should have been. Many of my musical/guitar heroes died before I was born.
Same
It's ok. I was born at the right time (well, a little late to be a real part of the fun), and these were the guys I was always listening to as a kid.

Used to live near this house. In the 70's it was painted black and the columns were gold.
@Jeff R. A Tech Guy with money and his wife, formerly married to the Airplane's roadie, own it and still live there now. It is all white again as it was before the Airplane bought it.
Man i can listen to this over and over again. Two of my fav cats here. Garcia and Jorma!! Truly fine musicians.
Mark Erickson ...and I have listened to them..over and over and over again.Good Stuff !!!
Thanks for reminding me to listen to this beauty again.

This is an amazing jam session.
While living in Berkeley we never missed a Hot Tuna Show !
This is a dream I had in 1968 come true!
Great Jam!!!!....We need more of this Now!
This jam is straight chronic
This is golden. Thank the stars this was recorded!
いいセッション！ガルシアはいいですね。むかし、下北沢のパン屋にガルシアが来ていて、ガルシアさんが一緒にセッションしよう、と言っている、という知らせを聞いて、わたしはギターを探すのだけれど、ギターがない！で、近くの質屋などを訪ねてギターを探していると気に、目が覚めました。この夢は、40年たった今でもはっきりと覚えています。
The beauty of pause buttons...gives you a chance to grab your pipe....
nah grab a drink. Martini anyone?
Drug free is the way to be. Been there. Done that. Bought a t-shirt and lost it.
@@stacyblue1980 you just weren't taking the right drugs mate
aw naw grab a beer and sit and think, lol
. . . .and then you're old. . . gives you a chance to take a 2 min. piss, grab a drink, and grab your pipe LOL!
stacyblue1980 there’s a certain irony to wanting alcohol, but believing you are free of drugs 😂
Holy crap. What a great way to spend 20 minutes.
scalemiester : I must concur!!! An awesome way to spend twenty minutes indeed!!! In fact, it don't get much better than this!!!
I know right and there's like 20 20 minute jams with Garcia and these guys on TH-cam
This is the 3rd time i listen to this in 6 hours.
Yarp Scalemiester U def nailed it! Awesome time listening 2 THIS jam! REALLY hittin' drinkin' Natty Boh & smokin OG Kush w/ honey oil! (🍄);·}X

I never heard this before. This Jam is so wonderfully Awesome!
I love the way they alternate lead on this, it's so smooth and transparent.
Oh My God ... Never heard this before .. almost 50 years ago .. holy shit ... Thank you !! Two of my most favorite musicians !!
Love love love this entire session. Fantastic! Incredible set!!!
Great sound, especially for bootleg of that era. And fantastic pix!
Absolutely Golden, how I got into listening to these at only 19 is beyond me. These jams definitely need to make a big comeback!
Wow this is soooo good. Just makes me dance the night away in my living room. Turn up the volume and dance away with me....
ok!
Never forget to boogie
What it must have been like to live in San Francisco in the sixties with these bands playing somewhere every week....
It's amazing how much talent you can fit in the House on 2400 Fulton Street.Half of it came from the house on 710 Ashbury.
Jorma was talking about this jam Saturday night on his fur piece concert on TH-cam video, check it out this Saturday night ✌️👍🤠🍄
Been loving those Quarantine Concerts ~ seriously, one of the few good things to come out of this shit show...
Im hooked -every saturday night I look forward to it.
This is 100% sweet from first to last note and all beats in between! awesome!
Wow I'm only 38 but as a new gutiar player of a year and a half this makes the chills come over my body and want to cry with the talent fucking bad ass all I have to say
Even Bill Graham is gone now. But I appreciate TH-cam and the uploader. In complete sincerity just this moment. I don't escape cynicism often.
freaking awesome..i smoked a joint with Jorma in 68 in Pittsburgh PA, after their "Somebody to Love Tour" show in our hotel room when they were staying at the Hilton..great moment....Merle would have fitted into this jam perfectly..i wonder where he was that day.
What a great era. The bands just loved to play. Glad to have been there.
Bless you uploader.
Jerry left. Jorma right.
Steve Koehler nice, I caught on quick👍🏻
Hot effing Tuna!
sort of doin bobby
Couldn't tell until about 2:30. Then it was obvious.
Eric H I think Jorma is definitely doing some Bobby stuff...kind of cool.
What a find! The music and the wonderful graphics evoke so much it's almost too much.
Je ne connaissais pas cette jam que je trouve être le reflet de leur for intérieur , leur âme . Chapeau !
Ils sont les meilleurs! (They are the best)

Well, there was "elevator music" which for today's youth is prolly "telephone on-hold music."
I remember discussions about who was better the Beatles, Rolling Stones, or the Dave Clark Five.
With MoTown hits et al, it felt like a new good song was popping up every 10 minutes. I doubt people have that feeling now.

This jewel is something to behold.More creativity and innovation that stretched the imagination to its limits.Rock on !!!
The art work from that time too! Wow!
Sit back and enjoy, I agree with all who listen to this over and over.
Terrific vibes. What a bunch of great musicians in their heyday ! Lettin loose & having fun. Next best thing to a time machine.
WHAT A MAGICAL 20 MINUTES!!! Reminds me of "Push Push" with 2 guitars, instead of guitar/flute. Thanks much for sharing!
One tight jam with Jack holding it together.
My thought too. 👍
Some really cool pictures on this video Buddy .
Man, this sounds really good!
Just off the hook. J to the Third Power aka J Cubed aka 3 J’s=Jerry Jack Jorma with phenomenal sound. Another must have and wonderful way to jump start my day in the morning. Thank You!!!
I love that within the first licks you can distinguish which guitar is which. Both such unique players
I drive by this house sometimes. Its on Fulton across from GG park. I can only imagine the parties that went on in there.
Happy Birthday to Jorma! 82 years young today! 🌞🎂💞
Happy belated birthday Jorma
Man, can you imagine a band with Jorma, Jerry, Phil and Jack?
And Garcia...how many genres/artists did HE introduce us to? Countless! We owe these cats a great deal of thanks for contributing and expanding the culture...far out man!
so much love and goodtimes in these comments! Love and Gratitude
Mucho gracias for this share!!!!!!
No Habla - Listen !
Knew I was about 10 minutes in, bummed because I figured the music was about to end. Looked and saw I had 9 more. Yes!!
THOSE WERE MOST CERTAINLY THE DAYS!🎉🎉😊 TUNE IN TURN ON AND DROP OUT🎉
I'm a Deadahead,been to a lot of Dead shoes but I've been to a lot of Tuna shows,not as many but Jorma is a God to guitar.I just saw Tuna at the Beacon Theatre in NYC on Saturday 11/19 man what a excellent show.
I bet it was great. Those two have spent there entire lives playing music

Can’t have the art if you don’t know the technique.
Imagine if they'd played a second chord!
Ummm... let's not get hasty here.
how would that have helped the jam?
Yes just imagine!!!!!! WoW a super commercially digestible pop song may have emerged for all the mainstream pop listeners of the world yay! Or just don't listen..
That’s very funny, indeed. 🐸

Nothing like some meandering hippy jams to end the night right!
You do not get any better than this.
Thanks for making and sharing this, so awesome! ❤💙🎅🏿
P.S. The Bass is truly the lead guitar.....the backbone of the music (along with the drums)..They call it the baseline.....and that's what holds it together........
none better than phil lesh
'cept this is Jack
This is Cassidy, although Lesh kicks some major space when he's playing.
nice jam
Jacks awesome. Can’t wait to see Tuna at Great South Bay Music Festival this Sunday. Gonna be epic. Norma and Jack gotta be mid seventies. They still rock that heavy, funky blues.

As painful as a cluster headache, a hammer-smashed thumb, and an IV shot of strychnine, all together As hard to accept as the pseudo-logic in a Trump speech or an Alex Jones "news" story.
But now I think that Dino's voice expresses some serious soul, and he has the exquisite control of a Pavarotti. And I'll tell ya, I think this show is every bit as good as a sexy soaking-the-sheets-sexed-up stoned stoner-chick's super-sensuous sloppy sword suck. So says Scotty, the pSychedelic psychonaut Sunshine seller/sojourner & sweet-young-thang seducer.
Well what the hell did you say to him?
Hippiekinkster Met Dino the night of my 21st birthday at a restaurant on fisherman's wharf . He was grind. He bought me my first legal drink in a bar. I brokedown the night before on the Golden Gate Bridge in my 77 VW bus. Got towed to Mill Valley, met Phil Lesh at the Circle K. Living that Marin life. Seeing Dino down and out the next night was tough. The contrast of who made it and who didn't was on display. (August 1990)

Ageee. As much as I love Jerry and Jorma (who I saw play last month--September 2018), Duncan and Cippolina were a superb pairing.
This makes for a great thanksgiving!
WOW the slideshow is amazing and i love the jam!!!
Thanks. Love everything Jefferson Airplane.
Best Group for me
The Airplane was my first love starting in 9th grade in '69, and they have comforted me all through the long strange trip with the Dead, and beyond. You never forget the one that brought you to the dance and helped you get on the bus.
Great they were and their incarnation as the Jefferson Starship. Could never get enough. That house on Fulton street was black in my days in S.F. I guess they decided to paint it ... not that it matters. GARCIA rules as always however. Only one = Jerome J. Garcia !!! RIP Jerry!! (~);}~~~~ !!
I think this was recorded after the famous Thanksgiving banquet at the Airplanes mansion at 2400 Fulton St. Before it started, they took a photo of the partially set up table with Jack pretending to to be passed out which became the Cover shot for their first live album.
Nice, always wondered about that awesome album cover.
hippy thxgiving #1
Actually it says this was recorded Oct 28, a month before Thanksgiving. Also, I believe that cover photo is from the June 21, ‘71 Grateful Dead concert at Chateau D’HEROUVILLE, France.
The airplane house is a really cool place . Sad it's no longer around. Had an experience there, myself good gone bad shame people
sounding amazing
My God! This is insanely good!
Back when SF was cool.
LOVE this! Back to when music was just that!
@spotify please add this jam, this is amazing
Jerry n Jorma....rockin it...
Thank You !
Garcia said he gave up pedal steel because it would take too long to learn it well and he wanted to focus on his picking and guitar slinging... he actually never played pedal that often... with that said he could play anything better than most...
This is Jerry on the pedal Steel with (basically) the Airplane th-cam.com/video/EzmRuwhNqWI/w-d-xo.html
