By SCOTT IWASAKI The Park Record Hot Tuna guitarist Jorma Kaukonen can’t wait until he and his bandmate Jack Cassidy arrive in Park City for a threenight run at the Egyptian Theatre that starts on Thursday. “We’re excited about this for a lot of reasons, and one not the least of which is that we’ll be up in part of your beautiful country,” Kaukonen told The Park Record during an inter- The L.A.

I’m aware that we use the term acoustic loosely because we have all this junk we have to plug in to make it sound like you’re playing in your living room...” Jorma Kaukonen Hot Tuna guitarist “We’re ready to be in one venue, which gives us a chance to explore what we do without the packing and unpacking,” he said. “It will be neat to be in residence for a while.” The concerts will be performed acoustically and will feature old and new songs. “Jack and I, over the years because we have played with each other for so long, have a large repertoire of stuff,” Kaukonen said. “So, we plan to play songs from our beginnings to what we’re working on now.” The two have played music together in one way or another since 1958. “Jack’s a little younger than me, but the thing is we [have gone] through so many incarnations of bands together: our high school band, Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna,” Kaukonen said. That doesn’t mean the old songs will sound old. “Even when we do those early songs in our rep, there is always a possibility that SUDOKU 115 Sea once home to 1,100-plus islands 116 Dell operator 117 Chews the scenery 118 Milan moolah 119 Bear’s advice 120 Pharmacy pickups 121 Big Pharma dept. 122 Aligned, with “in” Down 1 Sharable doc format 2 Court figure 3 “C’mon, let’s go!” 4 Like revealing memoirs 5 Hearty comfort food 6 Short filmmaker? 7 Exhibit with a baby 8 Its logo contains Hebrew letters 9 Separates 10 Wrapped Mexican fare 11 Many 12 Public outcry 13 Corp. symbols 14 Mesmerized 15 Give the green light 16 Limerick neighbor 17 “I did it!” 19 Pronoun for a skiff 23 Salon treatment 25 Accompanist? 28 Common town ctr. 32 John of “Star Trek” (2009) 34 Twist in a tale 36 Wrong at the start? 37 Certain entrance fee 38 Speak 39 Assure 41 John of “Hairspray” (2007) 45 Shrewd 46 Change, as a will 47 Foamy eye-opener 49 First name in virology 50 Mop tamer 51 Acknowledge the general 52 Tom or Jerry 54 Denounces 55 “Off” is often printed on one 57 Live-in nanny 61 LaserJet printers 63 Dash gauges 64 Words after make or take 65 “That’s a shame” 66 Siri’s Amazon counterpart 67 Grand Canyon rentals 68 Computer download 73 75 76 79 Lines for an audience Big name in labels Acknowledge the general One who may cease to exist when underappreciated? 80 USC part: Abbr. 82 Nailed the test 84 Filmy fabric 85 Backstabbed 87 Jungle chest-beater 89 Movie promoters 90 Floral ring 91 Progress 93 Treated very roughly 94 Yoplait competitor 95 Cuba libre ingredient 96 Biblical backstabber 97 Love, Italian-style 98 Yawn-inducing 100 Loop in a cattle drive 104 Think (over) 106 Arco de Constantino locale 108 Versatile NFL defenders 109 “Nebraska” Oscar nominee 111 Tight-lipped 113 Weather-sensitive airport stat 114 Mythical bird something new will evolve,” Kaukonen said. Much of the evolution of those songs is due to Cassidy. “I have to tell you that I lean on Jack a lot, because when I play a solo, the songs are like little classical pieces, and while they aren’t exactly the same every time I play, they are basically the same,” Kaukonen said. “Jack, on the other hand, has this amazing talent to improvise. While I like to improvise as well, I’m not on the same grand scale that he [is]. “Every time he comes up when he takes a solo, he’ll come up with new stuff every night. I ask him where does that come from and while he’s a talkative fellow, it’s still a mystery to me.” Kaukonen said the interplay between the two musicians is something akin to telepathy. “Jack is truly my oldest living friend on so many levels, and while we don’t agree on many things, we have always respected each other as artists and as men,” he said. “So, we have given each other a lot of personal wiggle room, because we really are the Odd Couple of rock ‘n’ roll.” Kaukonen’s door to music opened with the guitar. “I think there are some practical things about it,” he said. “It’s portable. You don’t have to be a master to actually have fun and play songs, because you can strum it or you can pick it.” Kaukonen also likes the way it looks. “It’s a very old instrument, and it has evolved over the years,” he said. “I bet someone probably took a turtle shell and put a stick and strings on it, or something. “The thing is that I love the darn things today as much as I ever did,” he said. “There’s probably some mystical content somewhere, but it looks cool and sounds cool.” Please see Hot, C-5 |
