作为七十年代著名的迷幻摇滚乐队Jefferson Airplane的吉他手，布鲁斯大师Jorma Kaukonen从青年时期就研习吉他，从此开始了近五十年的演奏生涯。
Jorma Kaukonen是最著名的根源布鲁斯和兰草传奇乐手之一，“Rolling Stone”杂志的百大吉他手榜单中，他名列第五十四位。参与的两支乐队Jefferson Airplane和Hot Tuna都有着长长的唱片发行列表，Solo唱片从1974年开始至今已发行了14张，最近一张作品是09年的“River of Time”，由美国著名的独立厂牌Red House发行，在Billboard Top Heatseekers榜单中打入前五。
Jorma Kaukonen作为一个指弹吉他手，演奏技巧有着明显的个人特质，早早确立了自己的独特风格，他的早期乐队生涯中就历练出了精湛的演奏技巧，尤以名曲“Embryonic Journey”中的空心指弹吉他最为绝妙，让人津津乐道，在现场的无数演出中都有着非常惊人的表现。事实上，Jorma Kaukonen的演奏技巧仍在不断向前，他说：“不能给自己留下后路，我的方向只有向前”。
二月京沪双城专场，Jorma Kaukonen终于带来了他在中国的首演，Hot Tuna的另一员乐手Barry Mitterhoff将一同表演。摩登天空旗下的纽约独立乐队Arms and Legs也将作为暖场加盟演出。

S.T.D. presents legendary guitarist and founding member of Jefferson Airplane
JORMA KAUKONEN
At Yuyintang(851# Kaixuan Lu,near South Yan’an Lu)- February 12th

Support - ARMS AND LEGS(NY)
In a career that has already spanned a half-century, Jorma Kaukonen has been the leading practitioner and teacher of fingerstyle guitar, one of the most highly respected interpreters of American roots music, blues, and Americana, and at the forefront of popular rock-and-roll. He was a founding member of two legendary bands, The Jefferson Airplane and the still-touring Hot Tuna, a Grammy nominee, a member of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the most in-demand instructor in the galaxy of stars who teach at the Fur Peace Ranch Guitar Camp that he and his wife operate in picturesque Southeastern Ohio.
Once had Jorma graduated from high school he headed off for Antioch College in Ohio, where he met Ian Buchanan, who introduced him to the elaborate fingerstyle fretwork of the Rev. Gary Davis. A work-study program in New York introduced the increasingly skilled guitarist to that city’s burgeoning folk-blues-bluegrass scene and many of its players. After a break from college and travel overseas, Jorma moved to California, where he returned to classes and earned money by teaching guitar. It was at this time, that a banjo-playing friend invited him to join a rock band, and although Jorma’s true passion was roots music, he decided to join. In fact, the new band The Jefferson Airplane got its name from Jorma, who was given the joke nickname Blind Thomas Jefferson Airplane, parodying the names of blues legends.
Jorma invited his old musical partner Jack Casady to come out to San Francisco and play electric bass for The Jefferson Airplane, and together they created much of The Jefferson Airplane’s signature sound. Jorma and Jack would jam whenever they could and would sometimes perform sets within sets at Airplane concerts. The two would often play clubs following Airplane performances. Making a name for themselves as a duo, they struck a record deal, and Hot Tuna was born. Jorma left The Jefferson Airplane after the band’s most productive five years, pursuing his full-time job with Hot Tuna.
Over the next three and a half decades Hot Tuna would perform thousands of concerts and release more than two-dozen records. The musicians who performed with them were many and widely varied, as were their styles—from acoustic to long and loud electric jams but never straying far from their musical roots.
In addition to his work with Hot Tuna, Jorma has recorded more than a dozen solo albums on major labels and on his own, beginning with 1974’s Quah and continuing with his recent acoustic releases on Red House Records—2007’s Stars in My Crown and his new CDRiver of Time, produced by Larry Campbell and featuring Levon Helm. With experience that would have many musicians putting together retrospectives.
Jorma Kaukonen is constantly looking to take his musical horizons further still, always moving forward and he is quick to say that t “You just can’t go backward. The arrow of time only goes in one direction.” 视频来了http://player.youku.com/player.php/sid/XMzQ3NzkyMzA0/v.swf 视频来了http://player.youku.com/player.php/sid/XMzQ3NzcwMDky/v.swf 视频来了http://player.youku.com/player.php/sid/XMzQ3NzYzNTky/v.swf 视频来了http://player.youku.com/player.php/sid/XMzQ3ODAyMDUy/v.swf 这个太牛了 感谢分享 果然是大师。。。。。。。。。。。。。
