VHS Movie Reviews of The Acoustic Guitar of Jorma Kaukonen: Blues, Rags & Originals Video One

Movie Review: Learn to play the Jorma way !
Summary: 4 Stars

Having always been a fan of Jorma Kaukonen and Hot Tuna, I was searching for an instructional video program that would teach me the Jorma style. Not only did I find what I was looking for, but Jorma teaches his style himself! A must have for all guitar playing Hot Tuna fans.

Summary of The Acoustic Guitar of Jorma Kaukonen: Blues, Rags & Originals Video One

Jorma Kaukonen's first musical influences were the fingerpicking blues of Blind Blake, Rev. Gary Davis, Big Bill Broonzy and other traditional players. From those inspirations, he built the acoustic guitar style that has made him a top guitarist and a legendary figure in the pop music world.

Homespun Video is proud to present this insightful video lesson. Jorma breaks down his fingerpicking style, lick by lick, and gives important tips on use of the slide, open tunings, right hand picking and innumerable other techniques. You'll learn four of Jorma's favorite pieces in detail, and in no time will be playing traditional tunes "West Coast Blues" and "Hesitation Blues," as well as classic originals "Crystal City" and "Embryonic Journey." Close-ups, split-screens and other video techniques help you see and hear Jorma's powerful guitar technique, providing intriguing guitar study and invaluable insights into his approach to his music. As a special bonus, Jorma and long-time Airplane/Hot Tuna partner Jack Casady demonstrate how two players, on bass and guitar, can collaborate to develop a song together.
