Jorma Kaukonen – Land Of Heroes (RSD 2022 LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Kaukonen cut this record in the mid-90s at a moment when his solo voice, always a bit separate from the Hot Tuna institution, was finding renewed clarity. Rooted in the American Primitive and country-blues traditions he'd been refining since the late 1960s, the songs here draw on folk and spiritual sources that stretch back well before rock and roll. Nearly three decades later, pressed on hazed gold-and-black vinyl for Record Store Day, it sounds like it was always meant to be heard on wax.
Grammy Award winner/Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame Inductee (Hot Tuna and Jefferson Airplane) Jorma Kaukonen’s The Land of Heroes is a Relix Records 1995 studio album, and was his first new solo album in over 10 years, displaying once again his mastery of blues guitar. The album incorporated the work of several other musicians, including Michael Falzarano, who had joined Hot Tuna at the time. This deluxe package includes an OBI strip, gatefold album jacket, printed inner sleeve, orginial record labels and hazed-gold-and-black-effect color vinyl.
