Papa John Creach - John's Other | The Midnight Special

[@This2That1]

He used to perform with The Jefferson Airplane too !

[@rickybobby6579]

I loved his playing on Hot Tuna's albums

[@dB-EV]

He toured with the Dinosaurs, in the 90s. Such a nice man,I was the roadie on a west coast tour.His wife Gretchen was a nice lady too.They would have coffee together with my wife and me and our dog every morning on the road. What good times! With good people

[@barrysmith8920]

Very cool!
I saw him with his own touring band in Tucson Arizona around ‘76 or ‘77…
LOVE his joyful energy 🌹

[@curtisphilumalee1447]

First of all give it up for the camera man. He had one job and got it right. Focusing in on a man that had mastered his craft and expanded it into another dimension. Unbelievable talent and performance. I was hoping someone would have walked out there in front with him Jamin on a wash board. (Thinking Rocking Dopsie himself)

Unreal. Otherworldly.

[@crunchyfrog555]

I always loved Madonna's testament to him in her song
"Papa John Creach, I'm in trouble deep".

[@StephanieJeanne]

Haha, he was cool! 😎 I'd never seen anyone play a violin that way before that episode. 💜

[@JustMe-vk4fn]

Whoa Papa John! Play them strangs!! :D Now *that's* some fiddlin' around. (wink)

[@jptulg]

This is a song he did when he was with Hot Tuna

[@gregoryduncan3067]

He actually toured with Jefferson Starship.

[@prestwickpioneer3474]

He was a member between 74-75 and 92-94 and played on two albums including Red Octopus.

[@loraa3873]

​@@prestwickpioneer3474what a great album that was!

[@ronm6585]

[@saanzacs]

Jefferson Starship used him well too

[@Troy_nov1965]

Made me dust off my Hot Tuna albums and give them a spin :)

[@SteveKraus]

[@yuvgotubekidding]

Love it. Was always irritated by the canned applause tho.

[@ericmcnaught8195]

Didn’t Madonna do a song about Papa John Creach?

[@weezie1982]

Bravo! That made me laugh.

[@glennkovacs1328]

I think the song was called “Papa Don’t Preach”. Papa John Creach was a violinist

[@garyprusha3883]

I wonder if Eddie Jobson took notice?

[@BigSky1]

Git Fiddler on Red Octopus.
