Shortly after Hot Tuna’s live album was released, we had tickets to see them perform at The Palladium when seemingly suddenly they broke up. I also saw Jorma in concert at the Palladium in April so forgive me if this story may apply to that show. Everyone was expecting long haired Jorma to perform at the Palladium so when he walked out solo acoustic with slicked back orange hair it was a bit of a shock. I later read in Rolling Stone magazine that at one of these Palladium concerts he had taken a swig from a champagne bottle that unknowingly to him had been spiked with LSD resulting in his playing the same note during a song for a half hour. Not surprisingly, I know that I had not noticed that evening.

Hesitation Blues

Rock on!
